Created attachment 154491 [details] Platform change disabled in the module properties Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build nbms-and-javadoc-151-on-20150702) Java: 1.8.0_45; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.45-b02 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_45-b15 System: Windows 8 version 6.2 running on amd64; UTF-8; pl_PL (nb) I've opened sources for Platform 8.0.1 and I'm trying to change a platform to build the platform module, but the option is disabled (see the screenshot). With the default dev platform it doesn't build (see bug 253319).
Obviously you cannot change the NB platform for a NB module - the platform is the one the module belongs to. You say you downloaded NetBeans 8.0.1 sources, where did you exactly download it from?

> Shouldn't I build 8.0.1 platform modules using 8.0.1? How am I supposed to do it - only downloading NB IDE 8.0.1? You build NB platform using JDK+Ant, it does not matter what NB you have installed on your system, you can build in CLI without NB at all if you want. See http://wiki.netbeans.org/WorkingWithNetBeansSources for more details. In short you download NB 8.0.1 sources, and run ant -Dcluster.config=platform > I don't see any module suite there. I am saying it belongs to NB platform it is part of, not to a module suite. This is not a bug, closing.
