This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
It would be useful, especially for those doing builds of NB as part of a larger build, to be able to set a property for what directory the results of a NB build should be put into. Currently, in nbbuild/build.xml, the firststart-merge target has this hard-coded as 'netbeans'. Making this configurable through a property would be convenient for times when the resulting build is desired somewhere else.
This was fixed in main trunk. Please verify by using ant -Dnetbeans.dest="/home/foo/netbeans"
Works great now.
