[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-181) NetBeans should be aware of WSL
(Ubuntu on Windows 10)
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-181?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17153343#comment-17153343 ]
Alexandre Lahure commented on NETBEANS-181:
-------------------------------------------
This issue is 4 years old, WSL2 is now a thing but NetBeans on WSL still isn't working. I just tried to create a project under NetBeans 12 with sources located on the {{\\wsl$\Ubuntu}} network share without success (NetBeans hangs). I tried to create a project from a remote server but only FTP/STFP are listed.
Don't tell me about cygwin/X server/VM dirty hacks, it is not an option : like Roger Murtaugh, _I'm too old for this shit !_
Don't tell me about using Linux, because I do it at home, but my company IT has a few good reasons to force me to work under Windows and I'm OK with it (won't elaborate, it isn't the point).
Looking at Visual Studio Code, it has a nice *Remote WSL* feature (of course it's baked by Microsoft!) so you can edit files seamlessly in the linux subsystem and in the Windows one. Unfortunately VSCode is really bad at PHP and Java editing whereas NetBeans is really strong at it (and my personal preference!).
So I'll be glad if there is some enhancement on this subject (y)

> Yeah Ubuntu on Windows is, I think still in beta but I use it for my daily work. At home and at work. It is really handy to setup enviroment stuff easily. So for this, NetBeans should be aware of installed stuff inside the ubuntu on windows. The path is "C:\Users\Chrizzly\AppData\Local\lxss (hidden folder)". So if NetBeans are aware of a cygwin installation, it should be treated like that too.
> And for everything else like I installed node, c/c++ stuff, php and so on.
> Would be great enhancement. I created such ticket for Terminal integration too, because of the Cygwin thing: http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=267478
