Netbeans 17 Flatpack on Linux Mint LMDE

[Ken Standard <ad...@qso.com>]

I wish to change the default font and size font used throughout the IDE 
(other than the editor).

Most of the documentation is for Windows. I have difficulty translating 
that to my Linux Debian system.

Where do I find the netbeans.conf file when installed with Flatpack. Or 
is that even relevant? It is not the same as any other install method.

What should change once I do manage to find it?

Netbeans 17 Flatpack (on Linux Mint LMDE) and Netbeans17 RELEASE

[Tim de Vries <te...@gmail.com>]

RE: This topic and Release of Netbeans 17


So is flatpack basically a POJProject with possibly a jar and properties 
dirs, possibly multiple package dirs containing ...? Both source and 
binaries? That's what mine's got. How am I to understand the code 
injection point for the Netbeans package? Is it even in Java, or is it a 
hodge-podge mixture of everything?


Are the file system denotations consistent for the JRE/JDK for the 
platform version and Netbeans version? Can anyone answer this, or is it 
more trial and error?

I guess it could telemetry, IF IT WAS TRYING TO HELP ME.

after install the flatpak I find
bfs /var/lib/flatpak/app/org.apache.netbeans/ -name netbeans.conf
/var/lib/flatpak/app/org.apache.netbeans/x86_64/stable/00dfe753ed2926a61143be7532da58a086ef1f6571e9e6766200323dcceca394/files/netbeans/etc/netbeans.conf
The long hex number in the above may differ for you.

Re: Netbeans 17 Flatpack on Linux Mint LMDE

the directory structure within the flatpack container is the same as the
standard install, The file is called netbeans.conf and lives inside the
.../etc folder inside the flatpack.
Personally I unzip the zip distribution under /usr/local and add
/usr/local/netbeans/bin the PATH, the etc dir is then /usr/local/netbeans/.

I also always start the IDE from the commandline using this script:
