Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.1 Beta (Build 201109252201) Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 21.0-b17 This is hard to explain. And for some reason I was unable to reproduce it on an smaller project. Try to keep up with me: Steps to reproduce: 1) Checkout this source: https://hg.java.net/hg/simple-marauroa~source-code-repository 2) Build the Marauroa Application Manager (will take some time the first time because it'll checkout two other projects. 3) Build the Simple Marauroa Client/Zone List Manager project (You get the same result if you build the whole suite, but this way is faster). 4) No error. 5) Now modify this 2 files changing from Zone_Extension to Zone Extension: a)Simple Marauroa Java\Zone Extension\nbproject\project.properties (dist.jar entry) b)Marauroa Application Manager\Marauroa Zone Extension\nbproject\project.xml 6) notice the error: Classpath entry Z:\Netbeans\Simple Marauroa\Marauroa Application Manager\build\cluster\modules\ext\extensions\Zone does not exist; skipping Classpath entry Z:\Netbeans\Simple Marauroa\Marauroa Application Manager\build\cluster\modules\Extension.jar does not exist; skipping Z:\Netbeans\Simple Marauroa\netbeans\harness\build.xml:174: The JARs [Z:\Netbeans\Simple Marauroa\Marauroa Application Manager\build\cluster\modules\simple-server-extension-zone.jar, Z:\Netbeans\Simple Marauroa\Marauroa Application Manager\build\cluster\modules\ext\extensions\Zone, Z:\Netbeans\Simple Marauroa\Marauroa Application Manager\build\cluster\modules\Extension.jar] contain no classes in the supposed public packages simple.client.extension.*, simple.server.extension.* and so cannot be compiled against I'll keep trying to figure it out tomorrow.
Missing steps to see the error:: 7) Build Marauroa Zone Extension module 8) Build Zone List Manager module Note: Created tag Bug 203008 in the mentioned repository so the state to reproduce the error is maintained.
Never use spaces in JAR names. Regardless of anything in NB, it will not work correctly with javac. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 195730 ***
I understand the space comment but then the issue is that NetBeans assigned that name on it's own. If you create a Java project and the project name has spaces the dist.jar property should replace the spaces with '_' or something. Is not like I manually put the spaces there.
(In reply to comment #3) > If you create a Java project and the project name has > spaces the dist.jar property should replace the spaces with '_' or something. So do not put spaces in the project name, and bug #195730 will not be triggered. The _display name_ may have whatever characters you like, but using spaces in the actual (sub-)folder path or any other identifiers is a bad idea. That said, replacing ' ' with '_' (or more precisely, PropertyUtils.getUsablePropertyName) in dist.jar would be useful. > [It's] not like I manually put the spaces there. That seems to contradict what you say in step #5 in comment #0. In general, please provide a small, self-contained test case if you want developers to evaluate. This kind of issue does not happen "randomly" so there should be no reason why such a test case should be hard to create, given the ability to reproduce a problem in your real projects.
Works fine on Unix but I will rather use PropertyUtils.getUsablePropertyName for dist.jar
fixed jet-main 3c4a85520a42 Newly created j2se project uses PropertyUtils.getUsablePropertName()
Integrated into 'main-golden' Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/3c4a85520a42 User: Tomas Zezula <tzezula@netbeans.org> Log: #203008:dist.jar ought not include spaces
