Plugin Options
The plugin options can be found in the Spring Boot tab under the Java category in the NetBeans options dialog (Tools > Options):
These options are used in the Spring Boot Initializr project wizard.
- URL: this is the Spring Initializr web service URL to use
- Timeout: web service timeout in seconds
These options are used as default launch options for newly created projects. After project generation they can be customized on a per project basis trough the Spring Boot project properties panel.
- Devtools restart manual trigger: if Spring Boot Devtools are used in the project enable manual trigger trough the toolbar button or key shortcut instead of restarting on class modification.
- Force color output: enable color in NetBeans Output window
- VM Options: default JVM options to use on launch
- Add options for launch optimization: add JVM options to reduce startup delay (see this GitHub project for more information)
These options are related to configuration properties completion and error highlighting.
The Lists section applies to completion list in the editor as well as to the property selection dialog when overriding configuration properties at launch:
- Sort deprecated properties last: whether to show deprecated configuration properties at the bottom of lists.
- Show deprecated properties with level ERROR: whether to show in lists also configuration properties marked with an ERROR deprecation level (this indicates removed configuration properties which are no longer supported)
The Editor Error Highlighting section allows to disable or choose the severity of error marks (error or warning) for each kind of check performed by the configuration properties editor.
