While you are waiting for getting help, here are some tips to improve your experience:
If nobody is calling back, that usually means that your question was not well asked and hence nobody feels confident enough answering. Try to use your time to elaborate, provide details, context, more code, examples and maybe some screenshots. With enough info, someone knows the answer for sure.
Don't forget to close your thread using the command </help-thread close:1027500463647621170> when your question has been answered, thanks.
... clone it, it has a build.xml, so it's using ant... and it's from netbeans, so ant run would be the most likely way to run it, looking at the build.xml
netbeans is an IDE, apparently the build.xml is incomplete, whoever wrote this hated his potential users
ant is a build tool and netbeans is ide
does vsc work?
sure
... this build.xml may want netbeans to run it, based on the vars it wants set ahead of time
Uh oh: <property name="default.javac.source" value="1.4"/> <property name="default.javac.target" value="1.4"/>
time to download a bunch of programs just to run this ;-;
... if it runs at all
How would I know?
I don't use netbeans, and the other 11 users of netbeans would be thrilled to find a 12th
oh okay guess i wont
Closed the thread.
thanks
If you want to run this codebase you might not have a lot of choice, but I don't know
Netbeans is not a first-class IDE and hasn't been for years
no it was out of curiousity
