To reproduce the issue, I did the following in Netbeans IDE 6.5: - create a new platform using the platform-6.5.1 and harness-6.5.1 zip files; use "Harness supplied with platform"; call the platform "NetBeans Platform 6.5.1" - create a new "NetBeans Platform Application" project, using the platform "NetBeans Platform 6.5.1" - run "Build ZIP Distribution" - execute the application on Windows - expected result: the userdir is "C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\.app651" - create a new platform using the platform-6.8m1 and harness-6.8m1 zip files; use "Harness supplied with platform"; call the platform "NetBeans Platform 6.8m1" - create a new "NetBeans Platform Application" project, using the platform "NetBeans Platform 6.8m1" - run "Build ZIP Distribution" - execute the application on Windows - expected result: the userdir is "C:\Documents and Settings\Username\.app68m1" The directory locations may change depending on OS version, localization and user preferences. Platforms 6.7 and 6.7.1 have the same behavior of version 6.8 M1, but they are also affected by issue 168935. The change was not intentional. Fixed in core-main #b8bdbc36c8c5 Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *200909010201* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/b8bdbc36c8c5 User: Tomas Holy <t_h@netbeans.org> Log: #171154: Userdir location changed from $APPDATA to $USERPROFILE |
