Bug 221347

Yes, I agree. But we must make users to stop using GF 3.1.2 ASAP.
Making it obtrusive was a purpose of this change.

Well your are punishing users which are happy with the GF 3.1.2. So they see the dialog (OK no problem with showing the dialog) accept it and it will appear over and over again (not OK). There should be "do not show again".

Totally agree with PetrH, it's annoying that there is no way how to close it forever. When every module would do this we could finish with 10 messages on startup before the user could start the real work although he was already informed and accepted the risk to have something not up-to-date.

Or worse, users that are not using it. See the e-mail to NeCAT below. Based on this, IMO this is at least a P2 bug, if not a beta2 stopper.

Is the GlassFish 3.1.2 error message dialog necessary every time that you start up?
 
Can we not have a tickbox that says you have read the message?
 
I have GlassFish 3.1.2 installed currently, but am not working with it, so I don’t see the need to go and upgrade GlassFish just so NetBeans won’t give me an error message on start up.

This will remove warning dialog from startup and it will be showing just after server startup.

I'll come with better solution later. This is just to not block beta2.

Please, add your quick fix to beta2 branch.

summary:     #221347 - Warning dialog can be disabled using checkbox

Here is final solution with check box to stop this window to be showing up with every start up. Check box is shared with all GF 3.1.2 WS libraries warnings so turning it off will stop showing this message forever.

I don't know how far is beta2 release process. It would be nice to get this change set there too but it's not necessary.

Jiri, check box value is stored in config/Preferences/org/netbeans/modules/glassfish/common.properties:
Gf312WarningAgain=false

Change it to true and restart NetBeans to see pop up windows again when you'll be testing it.

Verified in trunk. No need to transplant the final patch to beta2 branch.
