Update NetBeans manually - netbeans

I'm using NetBeans 8.2, I would like to update the plugins, but the firewall at work won't let me, they cannot seem to figure it out at work, so I was wondering how I can update it manually.
I found this link : http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqDownloadingUCModule
But I cannot select my version there, the only version above 8.1 is dev, but when I select one of the options, I either get to a page I'm not allowed to access or a page mentioning : "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
"
Is there another way to get the latest updates ?

Just applying the correct proxy settings should allow you to download directly within netbeans.
Otherwise try downloading the plugins via Plugin Portal.

How do you get #Recomended to work in VS Code?

I can get#recommended:workspace extensions to work correctly but I am unsure as to why I cannot get the general #recommended to show anything. Where am I supposed to put the extensions.json file?
My goal here is to have PowerShell install VSCode, copy over some JSON files for specific settings and then have the user shown the companies recommended extensions to install once they open up VSCode.
I know I can force them installed with code --install-extensions but I want the user to be able to pick and choose from the companies recommended list based on what kind of files they'll be working on. What I can't seem to figure out is how to get that list to show except within a workspace.
For example, we have a Chef team, an Azure team, Linux team, etc. each needing different extensions.
The #recommended option has no config. VS Code decides which extension to recommend based on the file types that exists in the folder/workspace that you opened (official release info).
So, in your scenario, I guess the best option is to use Workspace Recommendations (#recommended:workspace), using a different recommendation for each team/project.

Source code of a confluence macro

Confluence version: 5.5.2.
I need to know how I can see the actual source code of a macro in Confluence. I tried adding macros, then right-clicking the page to view the source code, but that doesn't really help.
What I am trying to do:
With the existing macro, task list (the checkboxs), I need to modify the code in a way such that changing the value from true to false (pretty sure it is the onClick() function) or vice versa will send an e-mail to all "Watchers" of that page.
Would this even be possible? The changes I make need to be recognized on the server so that the changes don't only take place on my computer. Also, I don't even know if I can view the actual source without downloading an external plug-in (which won't work for certain reasons). Has anyone done something like this?
The source code for Confluence macros can be found either in the User Macro section of the Administration panel for inhouse macros or in the plugin code. The first port of call is bitbucket.org for Atlassian plugin code.
To view the code for Atlassian plugins you will need to access the source from Atlassian. E.g. Tasklist Plugin in BitBucket.
You can also download the jar installer for this plugin from the Atlassian Marketplace Dynamic Tasklist 2 page, change the extension from .jar to .zip and then unzip the plugin to view the plugin contents.
Found a work around. If you go into settings (under profile pic), then go to e-mail and select all the checkboxes provided, it will solve my problem. Any small cahnge made in the document will be e-mailed to all watchers.

SoapUI Eclipse Plugin Freezes

I'm using soapUI eclipse plugin.
I open soapUI Navigator and create a new project. On the new project screen, I choose the location of the wsdl to generate test cases from.
After I click 'OK', the plugin starts loading the definitions. This is when it freezes.
I wasn't able to find any thing on the internet besides this 3 year old bug (which is the exact same issue I'm having, you can also see the screen shot of it): http://sourceforge.net/p/soapui/bugs/522/
Does any one know any information regarding what causes it, is there a way around, etc.
I'm inside a corporate network, can access internet fine, but there are firewall restrictions etc.
I use eclipse Soupui plugin version 4.0.1 and it works fine.

Configuring VB6 with VSS 2005

I have configured VB6 with VSS 2005, following functionality working fine :
Check In and Check Out of code
Get Latest Version
Showing error when code Check Out by another user.
Showing error if use try to edit code without Check In ( only when user takes latest version)
Difference I am finding in VB.Net and VB6 configuration with VSS are :
Code not getting Check In automatically when user try to edit code, without Check In Code.
Not allowing user to save changes and Check In code later after 1 or 2 days. User require Check In code before closing code.
Showing "Path/File access error:" for .vbp file.When user tries to save code on machine.
Allowing user to edit code without Check in when user opens the code first time.
I did all the settings mentioned in this link.
As MarkJ mentioned the vbp file is always saved when the application runs. You can cancel out of the dialog to run the project anyway but this is more hassle than just right clicking on the project root and checking out.
I am using Team Foundation Server with my VB6 projects and there is no auto check out in this either. I'm afraid you will have to live with it until you port the code the .NET
As I mentioned heredead link: WayBack version there is also a problem when you have some files or documents not in SourceSafe.
Specifically (as I still document here), when some of the files of a project are not associated with SourceSafe often no files have their SourceSafe status glyphs displayed.
The workaround I found was displaying the Add Files dialogue and then cancelling it. I offer my public domain add-in that automatically implements this workaround.
And BTW, make sure you install the latest VSS Service Pack.

Eclipse content assist (for PHP or anything) not using active working set

The Eclipse content assist for PHP (and I'm assuming for other types as well) isn't using the currently active working set - it's searching ALL files in the project. How do I change it to only use the active working set?
When doing a Ctrl+Shift+R search, it was also looking for all files in the project (not what I wanted), until I clicked the small black triangle in that window and selected the working set I wanted it to use. Now it successfully only shows the files that match my search string in the working set. However, this doesn't change anything in the autocomplete content assist feature (i.e. doing a Ctrl+Space to complete the name of a function or variable). Is there any way to accomplish this?
I'm using Eclipse Indigo release, so it's very recent.
I'm afraid it's not possible the way you put it. Eclipse Working Sets just give you a way to organize your projects.
However you may want to take a look at Mylyn, which is fully integrated with Eclipse platform. Here and here is a nice overview of what you can do with Mylyn. But briefly, what it allows you to do is to create a task and maintain a context associated with it. This way, only the relevant files will be displayed in Project Explorer and autocomplete would suggest you only task-focused options.
