Not install, and not working. (NB15)

[korenevskiy]

I renamed this extension I'm convenient for storage. But now I can't install it.

The plug-in loading check cannot be completed. Reason: NBM
C:\Users\user1\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\15\update\download\de-markiewb-netbeans-plugin-showpathintitle.nbm needs unpack200 to process following entries: 
netbeans/modules/de-markiewb-netbeans-plugin-showpathintitle.jar.pack.gz

File name de-markiewb-netbeans-plugin-showpathintitle-3.0.0.nbm not installing

@Chris2011 It is easy to rebuild the package without pack200. See https://github.com/netbeanslab/nb-sort-line-tools/issues/12#issuecomment-1247325902

@Chris2011 Can you tell me how your NB extensions can be installed? Are you related to the development of NB? Are you finalizing extensions? I wanted to write an Issue for the "nb-codeoutline" extension. But there is no way to do it. The bottom line is that "nb-codeoutline" does not show the checked lines. The code editor can mark lines with a checkbox. Therefore, in the NB-CODEOUTLINE extension, showing the position of the checkbox location is a very important function. It can be shown simply as a simple line.

hi @korenevskiy thx for the info. I will check this later and will probably fix that what @markiewb said.

Can you tell mw how your NB extensions can be installed?

Same as any other plugin. Download the NBM file, open the Plugin Manager, go to Download, add the nbm file and hit install. But it seems that it was packed years ago with pack200 which is not working anymore due to removing pack200 from JDK. I think from JDK 14. So what you can do as a workaround, just start NetBeans with a JDK < 14, install the plugin and restart NetBeans with your current JDK.

nb-codeoutline has nothing todo with this plugin here, please go to the repository and create a ticket there: https://github.com/markiewb/nb-codeoutline there is the issue section where you can write an issue for your case.

@Chris2011 Yes, thanks for the clarification. I know how to install the plugin. But the problem is that there were no links to NBM files in the releases. I just checked, the links in the releases to the NBM files appeared. Now I can think that this browser extension hid these links. But if it was you who posted the NBM links, then thank you.

Another problem NB. I noticed that the cursor in the text editor is not moving correctly. (PHP) The point is that when you write text, the context menu for substituting functions and fields opens. It's good. BUT! when you add the menu command, it interferes. I.e. when the menu is open, then pressing the cursor arrows Up, Down the cursor moves up and down the menu. But if you press left to right, the cursor blocks typing altogether. You have to press Esc every time. There is no such behavior in any editor. Pressing the Left and Right arrow keys should close the context menu without pressing Esc. What do you think, why can't they fix it?

The nbm files in releases where there since 2019 as you can see inside the assets section of the releases.

Another problem NB

Again, please stop posting problems which are not related to exact this plugin here on this repo.

• If you encounter a problem or you want a new feature for this plugin here, please create a new ticket.
• If you encounter a problem or you want a new feature for any other plugin which is not this one here, please create a ticket on the related repo
• If you encounter a problem or you want a new feature inside Apache NetBeans core, please go to the apache netbeans github repo and create a ticket there

And all with explicit steps to reproduce etc.

This ticket here is just about install of this plugin is not working due to pack200, I will fix this somewhen, any other stuff is not related and I will ignore it. Thx.
