Introduction

This document lists changes made to the API between core/startup and core modules. It is a friend API so it does not need to be developed compatibly, and indeed it is not.


Index of APIs

Incompatible changes by date

Fuller descriptions of all changes can be found below (follow links).

Not all deprecations are listed here, assuming that the deprecated APIs continue to essentially work. For a full deprecation list, please consult the Javadoc.

All changes by date

Changes by version

These API specification versions may be used to indicate that a module requires a certain API feature in order to function. For example, if you see here a feature you need which is labelled 1.20, your manifest should contain in its main attributes the line:

OpenIDE-Module-Module-Dependencies: org.netbeans.core > 1.20

Bridge Core with Core Network Friend API

Core Network provides ProxySelector

Apr 2 '13; API spec. version: 3.40; affected top-level classes: ProxySettings; made by: lfischme; issues: #201731

The o.n.core module finds a instance of java.net.ProxySelector in the default org.openide.util.Lookup. If some found then will be registred as default ProxySelector.setDedault().

ProxySettings.Reload allows reload the Network Proxy Settings

Apr 2 '13; API spec. version: 3.40; affected top-level classes: ProxySettings; made by: lfischme; issues: #201731

An implementation of this class brings a facility to reload Network Proxy Settings from underlying OS. The module core.network provides a implementation which may be accessible via Lookup.getDefault(). It's not guaranteed any implementation is found on all distribution.

NbProxySelector and ProxyAutoConfig moved to new Core Network module.

Apr 2 '13; API spec. version: 3.40; made by: lfischme; issues: #201731

Classes NbProxySelector and ProxyAutoConfig have been moved to Core Network module. Now the NbProxySelector can be accessed via lookup - in CoreBridgeImpl.
