Description shche123 2008-08-20 11:39:54 UTC

Console class is not 'supported' by the IDE.

System.console() returns null when the code is run by NetBeans. Need to go to Command line to test the code. There must
be a better way.

Thanks
Leonid

Can someone give an answer why is console not available and therefor System.console(); returns null?

Comment 2 Lukas Hasik 2008-08-21 12:17:46 UTC

no idea who reassign to. Jesse, Jarda don't you know where is the problem or who should be responsible for it?
thanks

A program run through Ant is not connected to a true console, so this cannot work. A future release of NetBeans will
probably run user Java programs in a different way.
