NBANDROID-V2

Apache NetBeans Android support plugin

This project aims to stabilize and update the discontinued NetBeans IDE plugin NBANDROID.

The current version supports Apache NetBeans 10 and 11, CoolBeans

Java 10, 11, 12

Many thanks to Radim Kubacki, the creator of the first NBANDROID!

How to install NBANDROID-V2

First you need to install a special plugin. It detects the version of your ANB / CoolBeans and installs the NBANDROID Update Center

http://server.arsi.sk/nbandroid_loader/updates.xml

You can then install NBANDROID

Known issues

In a fresh ANB installation, the first time you open the Android Project, the project structure is not displayed correctly.

solution - close and reopen the project

AVD Manager

Layout preview support

Color preview support

To use Android Color preview support you must first uninstall netbeans-color-codes-preview plugin if you have it installed.

And install the modified version of netbeans-color-codes-preview plugin from http://server.arsi.sk/ascp/ or add an update center http://server.arsi.sk/ascp/updates.xml.

I'm waiting for PR to accept. Current source codes are here https://github.com/arsi-apli/netbeans-color-codes-preview.

And I added basic support for Java, Color constants and RGB Color values.
