can't install on netbeans 7.1beta (osx 10.6.8) #9

Hi. First I've tried to install the plugin linked on your site. Unfortunately it can't be installed because of a missing dependency to "Editor Library". Seems like Netbeans6.9+ has "editorlibrary2" instead.

After that I've downloaded the plugin directly from github (3rd Oct) but this want be listed after selecting the file in plugins > add.

Any thoughts or hints what could be wrong?

I'm using Netbeans 7.1beta on Snow Leopard.

When you download the plugin, go to the Downloaded tabs in the plugin screen, then click the add plugin button on the top of the window. Browse to where you saved the file (usually your home directory/downloads) and select the .nbm file. I just tested it on Snow Leopard and NB7.1-beta and it loads fine.

The plugin won't work on 6.9. It was built using features and libraries from 7.0+ so that it doesn't have to be rebuilt every time Netbeans updates.

Uh. Dumb mistake. I've right-clicked "NBDrupalDevelTool.nbm" here in github and selected "Save as ..." but this does not download the file itself. Clicked on the name now and selected "raw" from the page and voila, everything works now.

Thanks for the quickk reply and this nice plugin!

LOL I've done the same thing before myself! I wish GitHub would put a mechanism in to directly download binaries.

Glad you got it working! It makes developing in Drupal a lot quicker, especially when trying to remember arguments for hooks.
