Key features

Netbeans 6.5 is an upgraded version. It is defined through a relatively short release cycle and a list of specific features.
Dynamic Web design and database tool design are particularly prominent. Netbeans 6.5 will be based on the features available in the 6.1 main release or update center, including
Javascript Editor, Ruby & rails tool design, jmaki, early PHP access, and JavaScript debugger preview.

Netbeans 6.5 will continue to be based on core value-excellent out-of-the-box experience and outstanding support for Java SE/EE/me platform features. Although this release has not attracted much attention, the underlying structure improvement for Java SE & EE will increase the responsiveness and robustness of the end user system.

Netbeans 6.5 will solve some defects in the project system field and make it more flexible in customizing the project structure. This makes it easier for users to migrate existing projects to netbeans.

Version 6.1 provides a set of pre-configured netbeans releases that allow users to adjust the download and installation experience based on the technology they are most likely to use. With the emergence of the first PHP tool in version 6.5, a new configuration is added on the download page to provide PHP with the optimal IDE development environment.

A local software package will be generated for Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, etc.) and opensolaris IPs.

Netbeans 6.5 will support glassfish V2 ur2 (sjsas91_ur2 ). IDE requires Java SE 6 to run, but development of Java SE applications in earlier versions is still supported.

In addition to glassfish V2, netbeans 6.5 also binds and supports a restricted version of glassfish V3.
Lite is known as web layer development. Because V3 cannot replace V2, both middleware will be bound to Web/javaee and full
Configuring. The glassfish V3 Ruby Runtime Library can be bound to the netbeans Ruby configuration.

The UML toolkit will undergo major changes, replacing the closed-source Image Library Tom Sawyer with the open-source netbeans visual library. This migration also includes a few UI enhancements and optimizations.

The core platform of Nb 6.5 will be compatible with the previous version 6.x. It supports all core APIs declared as _ stable. However
Generic Scripting framework (GSF) and Java parsing APIs
Some changes to the underlying structure may require incompatibility. Clients dependent on GSF 6.1 and Java parsing APIs must be upgraded to Nb 6.5.

Quality Standard

The following indicators will be used to evaluate product quality and preparation:

• Number of P1, P2, and P3 defects opened in issuezilla
• Bug trends, especially major development milestones
• Results from the Netcat community

The overall goal is to achieve the same or better quality level as the previous version in terms of "maturity" features, and to provide reasonable bug restrictions on new features. All details about quality standards of version 6.5 can be found here.

 

Netbeans release

The following netbeans configurations can be obtained from the 6.5 download page:

Configuration	New Features of version 6.5

Feature details

Priority Definition

• P1-included in the release, which is indispensable. These are the commercial factors of version release and should be directly planned to the Top topics.
• P2-loyal to the release version (planned, equipped, and so on). However, if you have to discard this feature, it will not necessarily impede the release of the original version. Note: Never take it lightly when you discard features that are loyal to the release version, because rescheduling affects everyone involved in the support and improvement of this feature.
• P3-a few "best" features for the current version, or advanced development work for future versions, can be abandoned or postponed, with little impact on version 6.5.

Performance Improvement

P1:

P2:

• Override dataloader registration and use of files-improve file recognition speed, based on the MIME type
• Scalable debugging for enterprises-prevents most debugger types (we have about 10 debuggers) from using their own listeners to monitor all changes in the IDE for effective registration and listening.
• Fix version File System Performance-make the UI performance of the revised file system comparable to that of the local file system (ui response latency: up to 30%)
• After all the projects are opened, scan the project classpath-the project will be quickly opened, and the specified classpath will be quickly reached (for example, jump to the Type dialog box) to avoid modifying a large number of events generated by the classpath when the project is opened, it is easier and better to define the process for opening the project and reduce the potential workload.
• Navigation work and update response scan-jump to the Type dialog box and CTRL + Click options at least in the editor.
• Compile upon Saving-the Java compilation file will increase every time a file is saved; the running time of the project or file (such as test changes) should be accelerated. Refer to the above Java & editor Technology
• Load various whitelists at startup-obtain control during startup through new tests and blacklists (implemented); comprehensively monitor changes
• Make sure that the closed project (P2) and closed file view (P3) are not disclosed, which is part of the verification submission.
