Description Koc 2010-03-21 12:25:37 UTC

Now when I using "help->check for updates" only plugins get his updates. I think that better propose update IDE too.

And maybe add field "type of update" in settings:
only stable
beta milestones (example 6.9m1)
nightly

Is this issue still valid ? If yes, could you, please provide more info - like what version of NB do you use, what scenario are you trying, etc. Thanks

Comment 2 Koc 2010-09-15 16:23:11 UTC

I am using last stable version (6.9.1) so can check this only when 6.10 be released.

Comment 3 Jiri Kovalsky 2010-09-15 16:38:00 UTC

Konstantin, do you mean that you would like to upgrade to the latest stable NetBeans version from Plugins manager? For example from 6.8 to 6.9?

Comment 4 Koc 2010-09-15 16:41:58 UTC

yes, you are right understand me.

Is this impossible?)

Comment 5 Jiri Kovalsky 2010-09-15 16:53:24 UTC

In such a case I am sorry to inform you that this functionality is not supported on purpose. We want people to always download new NetBeans version from our site and install the product via installer.

I am closing this RFE as WONTFIX then. Thanks for your understanding.
