netbeans-javaagent.jar is used as temporary workaround to patch a JDK bug which caused copy/paste issues on windows. It is meant to be active for NetBeans itself, not necessarily for platform applications (#8361). You can copy the jar or remove the "-J-javaagent:..." jvm argument from the application launch config if you are not worried about the bug. JDK 25 will contain the fix so it won't be needed anymore (JDK-8353950). -mbien > > Thank you in advance for your help. > > Sincerely, > > Dan > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@netbeans.apache.org > > For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
