Apache NetBeans 12.4-rc3 is Available for Testing!

Here's our release schedule for 12.4:

April   2: 12.4 Beta
April 16: 12.4 Feature freeze
April 21: Weekly Release Candidate 1
April 28: Weekly Release Candidate 2 (if needed)
May   5: Weekly Release Candidate 3 (if needed)
May   7 - 14: Voting
May 15 - 30: Release

So, we're running a bit behind schedule. But this rc, i.e., rc3 should --
unless very serious issues are found -- be the same as the voting
candidate, which should be the same as 12.4. In other words, the below
points to what is likely to be 12.4:

https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Netbeans/job/netbeans-TLP/job/netbeans/job/release124/19/artifact/dist/netbeans/

Please download and kick the tires!

What's new/changes for 12.4, a fuller document will be created closer to
the release:

https://github.com/apache/netbeans/milestone/12?closed=1

The fuller document is being put together here (though seems to be down at
the moment), please document the features and fixes you have provided:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Apache+NetBeans+12.4

Please try out your normal workloads as well as, if you've added new
features or fixed bugs, please try out those features and fixes to make
sure everything works as you expect.

Feature freeze is behind us now, so only fixes for blocker issues are
allowed this time. The rules are the following:
- The blocker issue, if found, has to be announced and discussed on the
developer mailing list first. Please note that if you have concerns about
the licensing of some files/components please raise it now as those are
considered blocking.
- If there would be an eventual need of fix, please:
- Mark the milestone as: 12.4.
- Please add Neil and me as additional reviewers.

That would also indicate that we do another release candidate when the
issue is fixed.

If everything goes right, this release candidate will become the voting
candidate and the next action would be the vote on the release.

Thanks,

Gj

Geertjan,

Yes that's exactly what I was going to do, but if there is a Mac installer for 12.4 rc-3 that would be easier.

Any chance or is that only built in the final release ?  For my own code I have built a 3 click "build and notarise my app" program so it is easy, but of course it is full of specific Apple IDs and passwords !

Regards

David

OK, we should do that for the voting candidate maybe?

The Swift launcher isn't used from the zip so code in that PR may not have
had end user testing. Hopefully won't be an issue. We had a pre-release
installer for 12.3 with the first iteration of this.

Yes, we don’t have a Mac installer yet, not sure it matters? Just unzip the
zip and start up NetBeans.

I don't think that's different to what David is requesting. And have we had
an installer tested with https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/2717 yet?

What would be best to try out for all of us would be NetBeans 12.4 rc-3
itself. Could you spend some time on that?
