![]() The IDE also provides emulators that can show developers what their HTML5 applications would look like and how they would operate in iOS and Android-based browsers, and the live edit features work on the mobile emulators as well as desktop browsers. On the mobile front, support for Apache Cordova allows developers to generate native iOS and Android applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. Web developers can also use Sass CSS and LESS preprocessor files in NetBeans, to save time building complex CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) for applications. Similar to IntelliJ IDEA's LiveEdit plugin, developers can tweak properties in NetBeans and have those instantly reflected in the browser. As we previously reported, NetBeans also gains a "live edit" feature. JavaScript code completion has been improved, with the code editor now aware of all your DOM ids, as well as model names in your JavaScript. NetBeans' JavaScript editor has been updated to recognize the AngularJS, Knockout and Ext JS JavaScript frameworks. In this release, a wizard has been added that generates a Backbone.js front-end that connects to a specified RESTful end-point in a Java EE application for the first time. NetBeans' excellent HTML5 support continues to improve. ![]() With IntelliJ IDEA 12 already offering support for JDK 8, and Eclipse offering early access builds with support, it's clear that JDK 8 should be well supported from the IDE perspective straight out of the gate. You can also instantly switch between different profiles using the properties window. Hints, analysers and refactoring tools are provided to help you ensure compliance with a given profile. The NetBeans IDE lets you specify the profile to which your application should comply. ![]() JDK 8 also sees the introduction of three compact profiles, a pre-defined subset of functionality designed such that applications that do not require the entire platform can be deployed and run on small devices. NetBeans provides tools to search for anonymous inner classes, and additional tools that can convert them to lambda expressions and back again. Perhaps the most significant new feature of JDK 8 is the addition of lambda expressions as an alternative to writing anonymous inner classes. The new release allows developers to work with the JDK 8 previews, adds support for integrating HTML5 into Java EE applications, and provides tools for developing mobile applications with Apache Cordova. ![]() After previewing it at JavaOne, Oracle has now officially released NetBeans 7.4. ![]()
