Go ahead and install the C/C++ plugin! Then go to the Updates tab, click on Check for Updates and then press Update: Navigate to Tools->Plugins and you will notice there is no longer a C/C++ plugin under the Available Plugins tab in the new Apache version!Ĭlick on the Settings tab and check the box next to NetBeans 8.2 Plugin Portal to activate the old plugins: Personally, I chose the package containing OpenJDK 13 with HotSpot, but any combination works just fine for our purposes.Īnyway, once you have the command line tools, OpenJDK, and finally NetBeans installed, run the Apache NetBeans 11.2 application.
