This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
The netbeans module project properties does not expose the ability to specify compiler arguments (also would be useful to specify assertions for unit testing) via the ui. This is currently a useful feature in a java project.
E.g. for -Xlint in JDK 5. You do not need to explicitly enable assertions for unit testing; the harness always passes -ea when running unit tests.
Created attachment 28071 [details] Yarda's build script patch (unevaluated; does not include GUI changes)
Might also be nice for the GUI to automatically offer to add -Xlint:unchecked to your args if you change source level from something <= 1.4 to something >= 1.5.
Working on a GUI too...
