Sean,
Well that is even stranger. Are you able to do the following:
- Click the New Project button on the IDE toolbar to bring up the New
Project dialog;
- Select NetBeans Modules under Categories;
- Select Modules under Projects and click the Next button;
- Select the Standalone Module radio button and
- See the default NetBeans platform in the listbox
- Is the Manage... (Platforms) button enabled?
I'm looking further into this, but find no existing bugs. But the
problem seems to be with the IDE not letting you bring up the Manage
Platforms dialog, not from the lack of the Visual Library jar, which you
can verify by searching for that jar on your OS filesystem. That will
save you the work of checking out and building the library.
