Description

Use Apache NetBeans 12 to build a Java with Ant - Java Application project to work with SQL Server 2019 Express database. The database was connected successfully via Service - JDBC Driver. The JDK 14 is used with the latest JDBC Driver, sqljdbc_8.4. (Windows 10, 64-bit).

But when use New-> Entity Classes from Database to create Entity and Persistence, after add all tables and keep all default settings for Entity Classes and Mapping Options wizards, as click on the Finish button to add and create these Entity classes, the project name becomes to red color, means that something wrong.

After compile, the following errors displayed:
