Netbeans With Jdk For Mac

NetBeans IDE is an integrated, multi-platform and open-source development environment for Java that is also compatible with other programming languages like Ruby or C .
NetBeans IDE doesn't just allow you to design and program desktop applications; you can also use it to make Internet applications that use AJAX, CSS, and Javascript.
With NetBeans IDE you can compile and debug your programs as well as control file versions thanks to CVS, Mercurial, or Subversion. It also includes a tool to generate UML models that explain the functioning of the software under development.
Requirements

For Mac OS X 10.4.9 or higher; 512 MB of RAM and 650 MB free space on disk.

NetBeans itself is written in Java, which indicates that it will certainly run on any kind of operating system where Java is available (Windows, Linux, Solaris, OpenVMS, Mac OS X). It is a cost-free item created under open resource permit, with no restrictions on its usage. Apache-NetBeans-12.0-bin-macosx.dmg ( SHA-512, PGP ASC) Javadoc for this release is available at Officially, it is important that you verify the integrity of the downloaded files using the PGP signatures (.asc file) or a hash (.sha512 files). Apache NetBeans is easy to install and use straight out of the box and runs on many platforms including Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and Solaris. Java Shell is a new tool included in JDK9 defined in JEP 222 to introduce REPL (read-eval-print-loop) capabilities to Java. NetBeans UML will run on the Mac OS X 10.5 without any performance problems with both JDK 1.5 and JDK 1.6. Current Development. For NetBeans 6.5 the UML drawing area has been completely rewritten. One of the goals for drawing area redesign is to better support the Mac. In the beta release of NetBeans 6.5 UML will be on the update center. If you have JDK 6 installed on your machine and NetBeans is not locating the installation, you may need to set the default Java version in the Java Preferences. To set the default Java version for applications and applets, open Applications Utilities Java Java Preferences and move Java SE 6 to the top of the list of preferred JVMs.

NetBeans IDE 7.0 has support for the bleeding edge OpenJDK 7.0 build release. Even if Mac OS X does not have an official binary distribution on the Open JDK site yet, we can still get a DMG bundle of the latest build of Open JDK7 to test on Mac OS X.
Let us go through steps we need to perform to install and test OpenJDK7 on Mac OS X. The OpenJDK7 latest binary is available on the Google Code site http://code.google.com/p/openjdk-osx-build/

The latest build available there today is seen as b144 which is the latest build available on the OpenJDK7 download page also. This bundle is available in 32 as well as 64 bit version.Netbeans With Jdk For Mac
They have created a nice DMG bundle which shows the Java mascot when we open the DMG.

The installation starts as a usual Mac OS X installer bundle. As seen from the below image this version takes 179.6 MB on disk.
Once we have installed the OpenJDK7 latest binary build. We can start the Java Preferences application from the Spotlight and can see two more JDK instances available in the list of JDK available. One for 32 bit and one for 64 bit.
If we choose we can set the JDK7 version default here. I choose not to set it as default yet as it is not an official version from OpenJDK7 site. We can still use this JDK from NetBeans by registering it as a JDK platform.

For registering the JDK7 as platform on NetBeans IDE 7.0 open up the Java Platform Manager from Tools > Java Platforms menu. The new JDK7 will not be seen yet. We will have to press the Add Platform button.
NetBeans IDE will point you to correct Java Library directory from where you can choose the openjdk-1.7 instance of the java platform.

When we select the openjdk-1.7 folder NetBeans IDE correctly fills all the required information and presents a prefilled dialog boz for Add Java Platform and we just have to click Next.
JDK 1.7 will start appearing in the available Java Platforms list. As we can see NetBeans detects all the required files and documents required for registering the JDK 1.7 platform.

Now we can start any Java project and set the Java Platform as JDK 1.7. For that we will have to open the Project Customizer by right clicking the project and choosing the Properties menu.
We need to change the Java Platform entry in the Libraries node first.
Once the Java Platform is set as JDK 1.7 in the Libraries Node it becomes available in the Sources Node also in the Source/Binary Format combo box. We will have to set this as JDK 7 also.

Now this project is set to be compiled and run under Java 7 platform. We can test this by adding some generics statement and NetBeans IDE offers a hint to use diamond operator (Project Coin)
NetBeans IDE will also apply those changes to the code when we select the hint as seen in the image below.

So this is how we can install latest JDK 1.7 on our Mac machines and test the JDK 7 version from NetBeans IDE 7.0 which supports JDK 1.7 features now.
