| NetBeans 6.0 Milestone 5 Now Available
|
| Milestone 5 is a "big bang" for NetBeans as it includes the initial
|
| version of the improved Java editor and the new Java language
|
| infrastructure that is based on the Javac. The APIs will give you full
|
| access to the Javac APIs for given source. Many modules from the J2EE
|
| area are disabled and we don't recommend to use the milestone for
|
| production work, however you can try out the new features.
