Installing C/C++ 8.2 in NB 12.6
hi,
I was wondering whether anyone had any tips on how to solve the following -
I saw on the mailing list that someone (cant remember who) was using the
old NB 8.2 C/C++ plugin with one of the new Apache NB releases.
I would like to do the same.
I have configured the 8.2 plugin repo and clicked install on the C/C++
module, which downloads, and partially installs, but then fails when trying
to "validate" the modules. There is an option to locate Unpack200 manually,
otherwise clicking OK appears to hang the install.
Does anyone have any tips on how to get this plugin installed?
Thanks a lot in advance

In more recent JDKs, the pack200 has been removed from the JDK itself as of
JDK 14 I believe (see https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/367). As such, it may
be necessary to locate another earlier version (maybe JDK 11 or 8 the
previous Long Term releases) of the JDK where the unpack200 is still
present. Once selected, I believe it should be possible to unpack and
install things.

Hi,
If you’re running NB 12.6, on a Mac, try its default C++ pull-down menu found in ‘Preferences’.
Have Homebrew repo install either CCLS or ClangD LSP client and configure C++ Project next.
To compile your code, goto ‘Project Properties - Build'
Pick and choose compiler toggles from the following article:
https://bytes.usc.edu/cs104/wiki/gcc/ <https://bytes.usc.edu/cs104/wiki/gcc/>
I find Editor compile command toggles and Build ‘clean’ and ‘run’ config academic, since I’m learning C++ from CLI.
You should find the NB 12.6 Debugger useful in troubleshooting.

hi David,
Unfortunately I dont do much work at all with the C++ debugger so there's
very little chance I am going to be able to help. In fact <bashful
admission> i've *never* used it.
Maybe one of the other folks would be able to be of more assistance?
Cheers

Hi,
I too am trying to get C++ to work. I’ve just raised https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-6413 because although I can install C++ and get a C++ test program to run, the debugger fails. Watching the install it looks as though it installs gdb.
I’ve attached my writeup of the exact steps taken and am happy to update this with input from others to see if we can get C++ to work repeatably. I’ve read a lot, e.g.
https://netbeans.apache.org//kb/docs/cnd/quickstart.html<https://netbeans.apache.org/kb/docs/cnd/quickstart.html>
https://www.shayanderson.com/application/setup-netbeans-for-c-and-c-compilers.htm
https://tutsmaster.org/how-to-install-c-c-on-netbeans-ide/
and Bradley Wilcott’s email of 18th Jan 2022.
In summary, I can get the compiler to work in NetBeans on both Mac OS and Windows 10 but can’t get the debugger to work. Perhaps we can work together to crack this ?

Ah great, thanks Michael, thats fantastic. I recently changed to JDK 17 (for Gradle) so good to know you can install and then change back up again.
Thanks a lot, appreciate that :thumbsup

Re: Installing C/C++ 8.2 in NB 12.6

you should be able to install old plugins if you start NB on JDK 8 or 11
since they still have pack200 support.
after its installed you can start on JDK 17 again.
you can change the path to the JDK in etc/netbeans.conf
