Resetting Java formatting options in Netbeans

I’ve just searched for a way to reset the Java Formatting Options in Netbeans 7.1.1. And I didn’t find a convenient  way to do this. The only way I found was to directly delete the .xml file (org-netbeans-modules-editor-settings-CustomPreferences.xml) which is responsible for storing the Java settings:

USER_DIR/.netbeans/7.1/config/Editors/text/x-java/Preferences

Netbeans IDE 7.1 Beta

Just found out that the new NetBeans IDE 7.1 Beta has integrated GIT support. Nice. And it’s so much nicer to work with Netbeans compared to Eclipse. Especially if you are working with Glassfish.

Ruby on Rails support dropped in Netbeans 7

What a pity. I really liked the Ruby support in Netbeans.

After thorough consideration, we have taken the difficult step to discontinue support for Ruby on Rails in the NetBeans IDE. Two main issues underpin this decision:

Java SE 7 and Java Development Kit 7 (JDK 7) are the next major releases of the Java SE platform, which Oracle is committed to deliver in 2011. A key objective of the NetBeans IDE has always been to offer superior support for the Java platform. To maintain that objective and capitalize on the JDK 7 release themes–multi-language support, developer productivity and performance–it is necessary that our engineering resources are committed to a timely and quality release of NetBeans IDE 7.0.
