@cesarreyes3 please test the nightly build available from the checks page of #7223 ("Artifacts" dropdown at the top of https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/7223/checks or directly https://github.com/apache/netbeans/suites/22309102380/artifacts/1375202417)

Sorry, I'm on Windows and I don't know how to test that build,
I tried to replace the org-netbeans-modules-properties-syntax.jar and org-netbeans-modules-xml-tools.jar .jars,
but i didn't get any result

Maybe replacing the jars was not the right choose, but since only thosefiles were edited I thought it would work

[matthiasblaesing]

1. Unzip the build
2. Find the bin directory
3. Run NetBeans using the netbeans64.exe launcher

The nightly builds use their own cache and user directory, so testing should be clean. Please do not import settings from old versions.

After testing please ensure, that to remove the cache and user dir again (use Help -> About to find the paths).

I tried to replace the org-netbeans-modules-properties-syntax.jar and org-netbeans-modules-xml-tools.jar jars,

The nightly build was not necessary, i just remove netbeans cache, now works on my instalation, thanks

# We can add new OIDs in here

@cesarreyes3 Two things:

1. What is your point? Property files have no sections, so first line a key without value, the second line is the key "[" with the value "new_oids ]".
2. Please don't reuse issues

I reopen this issue, as it will be automatically closed once the fix is merged.
