How To Run NetBeans 7.1 On JDK 1.7 Mac OS X Port Developer Preview
- Install NetBeans:-)
- Install JDK 1.7 Mac OS X Port Developer Preview
- Open:
/Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans\ 7.1.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/etc/netbeans.conf
- Change
netbeans_jdkhome="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home"
NetBeans works well so far, with minor visual glitches (e.g. anti-aliasing seems not to be implemented yet).
It might be better to set
netbeans_jdkhome=`/usr/libexec/java_home`
so that it honors your System-wide Java Preferences. Or, while still following this recommended practice, use
netbeans_jdkhome=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v1.7`
Also, I found NB to be quite unstable with jdk 1.7. Just my 2¢.

I try both of them but only this one works for me
netbeans_jdkhome="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/JDK 1.7.0 Developer Preview.jdk/Contents/Home"
Thanks Mr. Bien!
PS: by the way ... any book on the oven?
