Description Petr Jiricka 2009-04-28 10:39:48 UTC 
On a new Mac OS X 10.5.6 installation, starting NetBeans dev build uses Java 5, although Java 6 is selected as the default.

Here is the output of java -version:
java version "1.6.0_07"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_07-b06-153)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_07-b06-57, mixed mode)

Here is the info from the NB About box:

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build web-main-478-on-090427)
Java: 1.5.0_16; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_16-133
System: Mac OS X version 10.5.6 running on i386; MacRoman; en_US (nb)
