Description Mathieu Carpentier 2001-11-12 11:38:19 UTC 
I got a project for which the output filesystem for .class files is different 
from sources filesystem. The build is fine.

In my project I have a 'package' that contains only images needed by my 
application (it's located inside 'icons' folder). I'd like that the content of 
this folder to be copied to the build filesystem in the appropriate folder. 

When I run my project within Netbeans it seems to work anyway (can find my 
images in 'icons').

David agreed to take over this issue since it's build system related.

Reassigning to Java module. I believe that this functionality is
supported (or will be) in new Java projects.

The general projects infrastructure could provide something like
"copy" build target to solve this problem. Actually there already is
copy target (part of the examples) which demonstrates how to write a
build target.
Comment 6 Martin Matula 2004-11-13 20:51:59 UTC 
This is possible with the new build system.
