verification of plugin with update center
Just received:
Plugin: jVi Update Center JDK-11
NetBeans version: 17
Verification status: NOGO
Comments: On uninstall of the downloaded plugin (nbupdatecenter-jdk11-1.0.nbm), update center is not removed.
"update center not removed" has been a problem for over 10 years. My understanding has been that it's a NetBeans bug. Maybe I'm wrong. In May of 2011 I filed
https://bz.apache.org/netbeans/show_bug.cgi?id=198359
removed UC can not be added (re-added) by installing a module
I thought I filed a follow on issue specifically about the update center not getting removed when uninstalled, but don't find it.
There's some indication in the report that there's no API for cleaning NetBeans state to remove an update center. And I believe that there's an issue that the module can be uninstalled without getting notification. But I don't remember the details. I remember trying a variety of things, never got it to work.
If someone could provide some hints and/or API pointers, I'll take a look at fixing it.
In the meantime, is it possible to get the plugin approved while the problem is being addressed?

PS. plugin verification before release, woohoo!

At plugins.netbeans.apache.org I didn't find "Contact us" or any way to
appeal a "Verification Failed". In this case verification failed due to
what I believe is a NetBeans bug.
I'm broadening "To:", including users@, hoping to catch someone who
can/will handle/respond.

Re: [External] : verification of plugin with update center
Posted by Jiří Kovalský <ji...@oracle.com>.
Just to clarify, this has been addressed and resolved to Ernie's
satisfaction.
As a general rule, if a plugin installs its own update center, which is
then not removed when such a plugin is uninstalled, this is not a reason
for the plugin to be rejected due to the issue that Ernie referred to.
