How does NetBeans run for you?

Was going to start using NetBeans today and was amazed at how bad it was. Can't really picture it being that bad for most people.
Basically here is what it did.
Loaded - took like 10 seconds.
Popped up, I choose to make a new project.
Spent like 5 minutes reading the classpath classes or something.
Gave me a wizard. I tried to make a project, java errors showed up red in the status bar, stopped working: I closed it.
I could continue but basically it was the slowest and buggiest thing I have ever tried to use, Maya seriously runs faster and I don't understand how what is basically a text editor could lag so bad. It only crashed once, but it was painly slow; even trying the whole thing lagged. Is this normal or was it just not working right on my computer? Anyone know what could maybe make it go faster?

128 videoIt is probably a memory issue. Netbeans consumes quite a bit of memory. On my workstation which has 1 gig of memory, Netbeans consumes 128 megabytes at startup. WinXP, email, virusscan and a few other necessities eat up about 400 megabytes on my PC, so when I'm using Netbeans my PC uses between 528 and 768 megabytes depending on what I am doing.
Your poor performance and failures are most likely due to memory constraints on your PC (128mb if I am reading your note correctly). If you want to use a robust IDE you are going to have to add additional memory to your PC, and even for modest command line programming your memory is borderline.
I use and really like Netbeans and have found it fast and stable for all the work I have done and it has been extensive. I am running on a AMD 64 3000+ with 1 gig memory, but ran reasonably well on a P4 1.3Ghz with 768 megabytes.
Sorry I don't have a better message for you.

  • MythArchive. Does it work for you?

    I have mythtv setup and everything working for me except this piece.  I've been fighting this for some time.  At first mytharchive simply would not start.  I outputted to a log and it said that the output to dvd had not been compiled in.  This was from the prebuilt packages in the Arch repos.  So I downloaded the source and compiled.  Then I was able to select what I wanted to archive and all, but it gave me errors when it actually got to the transcoding portion.  Some unknown variable name, sorry I've forgotten the exact because its been awhile.  So finally I decided to download the source for everything and compile that.  Well I can't get mythplugins to compile, because of unknown variable errors during the make.  At this point I have surrendered.
    My question is simply this.  Does it work for you with the latest releases?  How did you install?  Arch Packages?  Compiled from source?

    I had to get it working by compiling it myself i.e. using the mytharchive PKGBUILD, putting it in an empty directory and running makepkg.
    This version of mytharchive requires make clean on each build, or, as I did, it needs to be built from a clean directory. See this for more details..... http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/229431

  • Mac OSX v10.6.5: How's it working for you with Premiere Pro CS5?

    If you've installed Mac OSX v10.6.5, let us know how it's working for you.
    Please make sure that you're using the most recent update for Premiere Pro CS5 before you report back. We don't want to waste our time disentangling problems that were actually fixed in Premiere Pro CS5 (5.0.2) from issues that still exist.

    So, here is my experience:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/751458?tstart=0
    Basically:
    Premiere Pro does not want to play the timeline (or the source window) anymore.  Sometime it plays for 2 minutes, sometime for 2 seconde and then stops, but most of time, it wont play at all.
    I can scroll over my timeline (no sound scrolling), but when I hit space bar (or clic on the play button) I can see the play button turning into a square (which mean it's now the stop button), but the timecodes doesn't run and the image doesn't play.
    So I suggest people to not being stupid as I was and to wait before to update... And hope a solution to come soon.

  • How does Aperture run on 128MB of VRAM?

    I want to purchase the low end mac book pro. How does aperture run on the 128MB of VRAM?
    Will it run okay and how will it compare to the 256MB one?
    Also, is it different for Ap1.5 and Ap2?

    It is really simple: Aperture performs better with stronger hardware. As one goes up the line of Mac hardware performance improves.
    Although Aperture will run on any MacIntel with at least 2 GB RAM, all laptops and iMacs are very significantly limiting to Aperture's performance. IMO if one buys a by-definition-limiting box like a MBP (I own one) it makes most sense to buy the strongest MBP available.
    Whatever you buy, max out the RAM.

    WiFi will work, cellular will work but they may not be able to access LTE, they will have to send it back to you for the warranty work.

  • How does one check for Updates...

    How does one check for Updates when :
    Registration
    Deactivation
    Updates
    Menu items are greyed out! ?

    Actually, it's a timing issue. Those items are greyed out for a couple of minutes after PPro starts. A little patience and they become available. ;)

  • How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms?

    Hello all,
    How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms? This might sound trivial but I have a problem with a PL/SQL Validation that I have written.
    I have one select list (P108_CLUSTER_ID) and one Text field (P108_PRIVATE_IP). I made P108_CLUSTER_ID to return null value when nothing is selected and assumed P108_PRIVATE_IP to return null value too when nothign is entered in the text field.
    All that I need is to validate if P108_PRIVATE_IP is entered when a P108_CLUSTER_ID is selected. i.e it is mandatory to enter Private IP when a cluster is seelcted and following is my Pl/SQL code
    Declare
    v_valid boolean;
    Begin
    IF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
    v_valid := TRUE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
    v_valid := TRUE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
    v_valid := FALSE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
    v_valid := FALSE;
    END IF;
    return v_valid;
    END;
    My problem is it is returning FALSE for all the cases.It works fine in SQL Command though..When I tried to Debug and use Firebug, I found that Text fields are not stored a null by default but as empty strings "" . Now I tried modifying my PL/SQL to check Private_IP against an empty string. But doesn't help. Can someone please tell me how I need to proceed.
    Thanks

    See SQL report for LIKE SEARCH I have just explained how Select list return value works..
    Cheers,

  • Drawing with a custom profile stroke is not working for me. Does it work for you?

    Drawing with a custom profile stroke is not working for me. Does it work for you?
    I can only apply it on an existing stroke but can't draw a new one with the selected profile. In fact if I change the profile to other than the default Uniform I also can't draw a new stroke with any other width than the default 1 point. This doesn't seem normal.
    Using SC5 on a PC.

    Another question on the same topic.
    Once I add a new profile to the list is it possible to put it on top of the list. I need this because the Adobe people decided to put the list in a tiny scrollable window with only a few of the first profiles showing. If there is noting in the interface may be I have to modify some program files settings?

  • How does jmf support for avi format

    I have written code to play audio and video filesusing JMF..My code is able to run only in mp3 and other 2 formats, but it is failed to run other formats like avi, mov etc..Now i need to play my video file which is their in avi format. Please tell me how does my code supports in other formats too...I had searched in google and it has given me some sites, but i didnt get any solution from them.

    Ok, I rant about this same thing again
    AVI is a file format. Think of it like a can. Either you have a can openor or not, but just because you have the ability to open the can doesn't mean you can necessarily eat what's inside.
    AVI is simply a file format that you can embed audio and video data into. The video itself is going to be encoded using some video encoding, like, RGB or DivX or something like that.
    JMF supports the AVI filetype, but it only supports a few video encodings for the AVI.
    [http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/formats.html]
    Same with MOV files. Again, a filetype. You need to make sure the encoding inside the file is supported by JMF, otherwise it won't be able to play it.

  • How does Aperture run on a PowerBook?

    Does Aperture run well on a PowerBook?

    Hi
    I have a PB 1.5MHZ and 1GB RAM. Aperture works quite ok for basic stuff(despite all the beta quality problems that are not acceptable, but this is another story). I have 12'000 photos in the entire library and it takes some seconds to load them all. But I never work with all images at the same time. So, If you have not incredible huge projects this is not an issue. However, I do not use many raw images but only high res jpg's (8 and 10 m-pixels).
    This is for browsing, working with keywords etc. - the powerbook works fine.
    But when it comes to editing, the Powerbook really hits the limit. Maybe this is also because I have only 1 gig of RAM. E.g. using the patch tool is almost impossible since moving the patch area takes 5 seconds to recalculate. The feeling is like having a blind mouse - you navigate and wait to see where your pointer now is. This real-time feature is totaly unusable on a powerbook. Basic editing like contrast, exposer works ok.
    And since everything is realtime, the more image adjustments you make, the slower everything gets.
    Importing is really a slow dog. In the office I have a dual 2.7Ghz machine with lots of RAM and even there importing images is slow.
    But still, I was quite surprised how well it woks on my Powerbook. I do the big things in the office, but beeing able to take everything with me and do some works on my projects in the train or whatever is really good.
    I hope that we soon get very fast dual core intel based powerbooks that might even be faster than todays dual powermacs...

  • How does it work for synchronous update via distributed scheme?

    How does the synchronous update work between the primary JVM and backup JVM via the distributed cache threads?
    Once a primary distributed worker thread updates the cache, the update needs to be synchronized to the backup.
    Does the primary distributed worker thread continue to start sending the update to the backup? Or it's the primary distributed service thread to start sending the update to the backup?
    On the backup side, is it the backup distributed service thread updating the backup cache? Or the backup distributed service thread delegate to a backup distributed worker thread to update the backup cache?
    There are some concerns about if it's the distributed service thread participating the synchronization which might cause bottleneck given it is single thread.
    Thanks in advance.

    When you do a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE, Oracle locks each row that is returned by the SELECT. The mechanics of locking in Oracle is that the lock bit is actually stored in the row, rather than being centralized in the v$lock table. This allows Oracle to be very scalable and prevents you from worrying about things like lock escalation, but it makes it hard for individual DBA's and developer's to know what rows are locked.

  • How does B2B Adapter for Inbound operation for SOA Composite works

    Hai,
    I am new to B2B. can any one share samples or links or doc's on B2B Adapter for inbound operation (receive)?
    Can any one share B2B inbound channel configuration ?

    1. How does the above can be achieved using JMS protocol?Where would you like to pitch-in JMS? You want to receive inbound message at B2B over JMS or between SOA and B2B, you want to use JMS?
    For receiving inbound message at B2B over JMS, please create a non-internal listening channel at B2B. Make sure to set JMS headers -
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/user.1111/e10229/app_interface.htm#CACDFEAE
    For using JMS between, SOA and B2B, create a JMS channel in Host TP profile and add it in the inbound agreement (for inbound scenario). For outbound scenario, create an internal listening channel and make sure that from back-end, headers mentioned on above link, are being set.
    2. Will SOA Composite having B2B Adapter receive operation has first operation can get triggered automatically or not as soon as EDI----->XML message is found?Yes, it can be triggered. Provided the steps in your another thread.
    3. will B2B Adapter receive operation in SOA Composite will take EDI--------> xml msg as opaque?No, if while modelling B2B adapter, you selected a doc-def otherwise yes.
