I am not sure who fixes bugs in KWalletProvider; initially contributed by psychollek but jtulach and ynov have done all subsequent fixes. If you have KDE you can probably help as well as anyone.

Looks like the problem is the usage of getApplicationName(true). I have no idea why you would want to pass the NB version string into any KWallet command. From API references it seems that NB passes the unversioned app name as 'folder' and the versioned app name as 'appid', but I do not know the significance of these parameters.

Actually unversioned app name is taken from org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.Bundle:CTL_MainWindow_Title_No_Project property which in fact contains version info(x.x.x for releases and Dev x.x.x for Development). I'm not sure it is a good idea to parse and cut this string in KWalletProvider. 

Jesse, do you know if there is another way to get the Application name without version information? Thanks.

No, I do not think so. Maybe just hardcode "NetBeans". I do not see any reason why you would want to maintain separate wallets for distinct NB-based apps (and the other providers do not attempt to do so).

Please, have a look at this issue since perhaps it might be P2 (moreover, it should be easily fixable, I hope).

Have a look at the steps in the initial description - keyring (stored passwords) simply does not work for every new version of NetBeans and one simply lost his/her passwords.

Thanks.

Sorry, I simply have to raise it to P2 since today I installed 7.1 RC1 and I have no available passwords stored in the previous version of NetBeans for:
- Hudson Builders
- Issue Trackers
- Servers
- Databases

Now, I have to provide all 33 (!) passwords again and moreover, I will need to do the same for NB 7.2 as well.

Please, simply do what Jesse suggests in Comment #3 (maybe consider "NetBeans IDE" as well).

Thanks.

Proposed solution from comment 3 was adopted

Perfect, thanks a lot!

Log: Issue #200657 - Passwords from KDE KWallet not available for different versions of NetBeans

This bug is still in the latest 7.1 release.
It saves passwords in Kwallet as 'NetBeans IDE 7.1'.

Closing again, TM is 7.2, not 7.1.

Could this issue be a candidate for 7.1 patch, please?

Thanks.

Yes, the fix works for me.

Thanks.

Tomasi, could you please verify also in 7.1.1 RC1 build? (from smetiste). I do not have KDE installed:(
Thanks in advance:)

It works for me but I do not have a build from smetiste, I built it myself. Is it OK?
