Question about issue tracker

Hi,

Are there any plans to open up (migrate) the issue tracker for the 
broader apache community to tackle existing/old Netbeans bugs?

I ask because I feel like the bandwidth for fixing Java Editor bugs is 
like sucking a milkshake through a straw: major bugs are being reported 
at an expoentially-growing rate and they are being fixed at a rate of 
1-2 a week. The nightly builds are frankly barely usable anymore. I am 
specifically concerned about Maven + Java projects where I routinely get 
NullPointerExceptions and "slow action" errors (actions taking 13-20 
seconds to complete on a seemingly random basis).

This component needs more love. And soon. Can you please prioritize 
accordingly?

Thank you,
Gili

(For context, I've been using Netbeans since 1999 so when I say things 
are unstable I've got a long track-record to judge by)

I was searching for exception reporter, that's why I never found anything :(

Thanks, Emilian I knew something existed somewhere

Re: Question about issue tracker

Posted by John McDonnell <mc...@gmail.com>.
You could, but for something this small, maybe we could convince you to
join the effort :)  then there's no need to file a JIRA ticket, you could
always fork the repo, make the change in your local repo and then submit a
PR, explicitly pointing out why you think the change is needed.

All of this could be done quicker than a ticket, as it would probably be
viewed as a low priority item ;)

Re: Question about issue tracker

Posted by John McDonnell <mc...@gmail.com>.
Hi Cowwoc,

At the moment NetBeans in migrating over to Apache, and in the latter half
of 2017, the first initial code drop took place containing the NetBeans
platform and the basic Java modules, etc...  As a result the old codebase
stored in Oracle, i.e. https://netbeans.org/community/sources/ is no longer
applicable for use since the more up to date changes are happening in the
code base found: https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans

This means the daily builds should be taken from here:
https://builds.apache.org/view/Incubator%20Projects/job/incubator-netbeans-release/


In relation to the exception reporter I believe there was some discussion
about this, but I cannot seem to find it on the mailing lists, so maybe
I'm imagining this.  But your right, something will need to be done about
this.


Please check out the new daily builds and please file any defects against
the JIRA link previously provided. - If there are any high profile defects
that might block you please report them as soon as possible thanks.

John

Which nightly builds are you referring to specifically?

Can you provide a URL just to make sure we’re talking about the same thing?

Re: Question about issue tracker

Posted by cowwoc <co...@bbs.darktech.org>.
Hi John,

That is problematic. The Exception Reporter is still adding bugs to the 
old issue tracker. If you plan to dump these reports (which we're 
pouring hours and days into) then please migrate the Exception Reporter 
to the new issue tracker as soon as possible.

I am getting my nightly builds from 
http://bits.netbeans.org/download/trunk/nightly/latest/

Thanks,
Gili

Re: Question about issue tracker

Posted by John McDonnell <mc...@gmail.com>.
Hi,

Which Nightly builds are you referring too? i.e. where are you getting them
from?

As for the bug tracker, there are no current plans to migrate bugs from
https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/ to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=216 If you
know of any bugs that are on the old Bugzilla and there still affecting you
then please make sure you open the defect in JIRA and maybe post on this
mailing list to help draw attention to it.

Regards

John

Re: Fwd: Question about issue tracker

One more I'd add - 
http://statistics.netbeans.org/analytics/detail.do?id=225493 (The {{ 
exception)

Quite possibly the same root cause as some of the others below (editor 
state gets confused).

This happens maybe 4 times a week, but when it does you have to close 
out and restart or lines start to disappear from your file without the 
possibility of undo.
