This is an RFE to add an option to the project suites and the ant build file. When building pluggins with a large number a modules, it is quite painful to walk through each one and tell it to build the nbm and then move all the nbms to a central location. It would be better if there was an option like "Build Zip Distribution" that would actually build all the dependent module nbms and put them in a local nbm directory. If you look at nbbuild/build.xml there is build-nbms. This is exactly what we need except for suites. This is my recommend code addtion: <target name="build-nbm-pack" depends="init" description="Builds all modules into nbms"> <delete dir="nbms"/> <mkdir dir="nbms" /> <loadproperties srcFile="../ravesuite/nbproject/project.properties"> <filterchain> <tokenfilter> <deletecharacters chars=".."/> </tokenfilter> </filterchain> </loadproperties> <for-each startdir=".." target="nbm" locations="${modules}" propertyname="nbm.target.dir" propertyvalue="${basedir}/nbms"/> </target>
