disable/enable compilation errors in Netbeans

Question

I've made the terrible mistake of telling Netbeans always to ignore compilation errors when running my Maven application.

Now that I want to revoke this, I can't seem to find an option anyway in the various configuration panels.

Does somebody know where this option can be changed ?

TIA !

Answer 1

For NetBeans 8.0.2 (in my case):

C:\\Users\\username\\AppData\\Roaming\\NetBeans\\8.0.2\\config\\Preferences\\org\\netbeans\\modules\\java\\source\\BuildArtifactMapperImpl.properties

file contains: askBeforeRunWithErrors=false

Set to true or file can be deleted, to reset.

Answer 2

Don't bother - found it after making a directory diff :

Stop Netbeans, remove the file underneath and start Netbeans again.

.netbeans/7.0/config/Preferences/org/netbeans/modules/java/source/BuildArtifactMapperImpl.properties

Simple, no ? :-)
