| <h5 style="border-bottom:0">Supported Operating Systems</h5> | |
| <p>The NetBeans Mobility Pack for CDC 5.5 runs on the Java SE JDK versions 5.0 | |
| and 6.0, which consists of the Java Runtime Environment plus developer tools | |
| for compiling, debugging, and running applications written in the Java language. | |
| <p>The NetBeans Mobility pack for CDC runs on Microsoft Windows systems that | |
| support the Java VM. Below is a list of platforms that NetBeans IDE has been | |
| tested on. | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP2</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional SP4 </li> | |

| <h2><a name="compatibility"></a>Compatibility</h2> | |
| <p>When you first run the IDE with NetBeans Mobility Pack, you can import a | |
| subset of the settings you used in NetBeans Mobility Pack for CDC 5.5 Beta | |
| 2. If you choose not to import settings from that previous release, the IDE | |
| opens using the default settings. </p> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <p><b>Note:</b><i> The IDE only recognizes previous installations where | |
| the user directory resides in the default location. It does not recognize | |
| installations where you have specified a user directory using the <code>--userdir</code> | |
| switch. If you would like to import settings from an IDE that the installer | |
| does not recognize, download an archive version of the IDE instead of the | |
| installer.</i></p> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <p>Though it is possible to import settings from the NetBeans Mobility Pack | |
| for CDC 5.0 into the NetBeans 5.5, it is not possible to import settings from | |
| NetBeans Mobility Pack for CDC 5.5 into the earlier IDE release. </p> | |
