[ BUILD # : 200807301401 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_07 ] Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200807301401) Java: 1.6.0_06; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 10.0-b22 System: Linux version 2.6.25-9.slh.1-sidux-amd64 running on amd64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) Userdir: /home/sasbeb/.netbeans/dev I have a line of code like: public void setMemberName(String memberName) {_memberName = memberName;} (all on one line) There's an implements icon on the left margin. If I click on the left margin to set a breakpoint, it takes me to the interface instead of letting me set the breakpoint.
Well, you can - just not this way, but via the ctrl-F8 shortcut, or via Debug|Toggle line breakpoint or via invoking popup menu on that line and selecting toggle line breakpoint item.
CTRL-F8 doesn't work on linux.
Generally or only if you use some fancy stuff like compiz?
straight KDE and Debian
> CTRL-F8 doesn't work on linux. Indeed: Ctrl+F[X] = "Go to desktop no. [X]". You need to un-assign the shortcut in your system to make it work in Netbeans. Unless you have 8 desktops, it shouldn't be a problem for you...
hmmm... so would this (keyboard assignment) be a java thing or a linux thing? Meaning that the hot key is not handled in java because of focus issues, or is Linux is eating the shortcut. I know that Kopete was grabbing the CTRL+I. I wonder in these cases NB should chose other hotkey assignments on Linux. As it is, I don't know if there's a NB bug (no response on a shortcut) or Linux is gobbling the keystroke.
Try Issue #134982 :) which i once "wisely" filed
The point is that this kind of shortcut definitely should not be overridden by IDE, otherwise you go mad. Imagine you really had 8 desktops and you were using them - this would be like overriding Ctrl+Alt+Delete on Windows (the most frequent keyboard shortcut)... To find out where the problem is, either unassign the shortcut for KDE (you should not need 8 desktops) or try to set another shortcut for the problematic action in NetBeans... Following page is very helpful for two reasons - you will learn the shortcuts of your environment and you will know which shortcuts might have problems in Netbeans IDE: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tip/2289.html Note: This is quite frequently met problem: http://www.nabble.com/Shortcut-for-single-ruby-test-file-run-is-not-work-in-linux-td18535386.html - but IMO definitely not a separate bug... However the problem with hints you originally filled is definitely a valid issue (but I would personally say P4).
Already reported, thanks. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 105746 ***
I agree that it shouldn't be overriden, but NB knows what platform it's running on, so it should use appropriate shortcuts (like in OS X). Otherwise, if a menu shortcut shows ctrl-i and it doesn't work, it perceived as a NB bug, and that the IDE is flakey.
Well, IDE knows it is running on Linux. But it has no clue what window/desktop manager is used. Keybindings for Gnome/KDE/Xfce/... varies - it is impossible to tell which can/cannot be used. This is the difference from MacOS or Windows...
Why doesn't the installer ask? As it is, I don't think the "one size fits all" approach to the netbeans.conf file is adequate. It has the OS X menubar option while it's installed on Linux. And I always have to modify the memory options since I run 64 bit java on a pc with a 64 bit Linux and 4 gigs of ram.
