Netbeans 8 Beta and Java ME SDK 8 EA

20378

Hello,

I can't get Netbeans 8 Beta to work with Java ME SDK 8 EA. The steps I did was:

1. Download and install Netbeans 8 Beta from https://netbeans.org/community/releases/80/.

2. Download and install Java ME SDK 8 EA and Netbeans plugin from Java ME SDK 8 EA - Downloads | Oracle Technology Network

3. I added the plugin to Netbeans

4. Enabled Java ME Plugin

All installed without any errors.

Now when I try to create an Java ME Embedded application Netbeans tells me to Install a SDK/Platform/Emulator (which I have done in step 2 & 3 above)? I am not sure what I am doing wrong here, everything looks good (comparing to my Nebeans 7.4 installation).

Any help is good help ;-)

Andy,

For the Java ME SDK 8 EA you must use a special NB developer build, as described in the ME SDK 8 EA Getting Started Guide and the download page:

JAVA ME SDK DOWNLOAD

The reason is that the normal NB version at the time didn't have the required support for Java ME 8, so we asked the NB team to create a special build for use with ME SDK 8 EA.

Hope that helps,
