How to compile on save?

问题

I would like to compile the project every time I save, but in properties this option is greyed, so for any change I do I have to click save then clean and build.

How can I do to avoid to clean and build for every code modification?

回答1:

Change your netbeans project's project.properties like below.

Find below line in project.properties file

compile.on.save.unsupported.javafx=true
Change this value to set to false

compile.on.save.unsupported.javafx=false
After change this file, compile on save option will be enabled and you are good to go.

Answer for Apache NetBeans 9, 10, 11 using Maven.

Configuration is set at nbactions.xml file, usually it'll look similar to this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<actions>
    <action>
        <actionName>run</actionName>
        <packagings>
            <packaging>war</packaging>
            <packaging>ear</packaging>
            <packaging>ejb</packaging>
        </packagings>
        <goals>
            <goal>package</goal>
        </goals>
    </action>
</actions>

To activate the Compile On Save option you only need to add the <netbeans.compile.on.save> setted to all, it'll look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<actions>
    <action>
        <actionName>run</actionName>
        <packagings>
            <packaging>war</packaging>
            <packaging>ear</packaging>
            <packaging>ejb</packaging>
        </packagings>
        <goals>
            <goal>package</goal>
        </goals>
        <properties>
            <netbeans.compile.on.save>all</netbeans.compile.on.save>
        </properties>
    </action>
</actions>

Also...

At latest NB 10 and 11 you may see the warning It is recommended to install nb-javac Library to improve Java editing experience and enable compile on save at Notifications section:

You just need to install that plug-in (nb-javac) by clicking on that link, more info here, there's currently an open issue for NB11.2, if you have problems with it try using beta 3 (or latest)

You should choose the Sources rather than Build from the Categories.
