DevFaqDisableAutoupdate
The IDE often checks for updates on startup.
This behavior may not be desired in some cases;
for example, when running tests on the GUI,
because they can slow the application down or potentially change its behavior
from what you expected.
In order to prevent the Auto Update check,
run the application with the netbeans.full.hack
system property set to true
.
For example, use -J-Dnetbeans.full.hack=true
on the command line.
Setting this property has some other side-effects; see: DevFaqNetBeansFullHack
Functional tests using NbModuleSuite
get this property set automatically.
So do unit tests using NbTestCase
(though they would rarely need it anyway).

Apache NetBeans is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF).
Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects.
While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
This wiki is an experiment pending Apache NetBeans Community approval.
