Hi, I use NetBeans to make Java programs , now i want to make a MacOSX Bundle of my application. I find this tutorial in java.sun.com : http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/JavaLP/JavaToMac3 But in my case don't works , because in use Matisse in NetBeans and this generate a folder lib with Swing layouts that i don't know where to put to make my Bundle working. Would be a good idea to make an option in NetBeans to make a MacOSX Bundle of the current project or make an update guide to make MacOSX Bundle of the project of NetBeans. Thanks.
Module Properties is for creating "resource bundles", i.e. files containing localized (or localizable) strings. Reassigned to module Form (makers of Matisse) as their members should have more experience with issues like this one.
The whole content of the 'dist' folder is needed to run your application. (JAR files in 'lib' folder are refered to from the application JAR file - and are supposed to be in 'lib' sub-folder.) See also: http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/FaqDeployingMatisseBasedProjects http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/FaqPackagingMatisseBasedProjects I don't know how Mac OS X Bundle works. We don't produce produce platform specific packages/installers for Java apps. Reassigning to build sys if they want to keep this as RFE...
Changing to RFE, probably a project for our contrib area.
you can easy create a mac os x application bundle with the ant task jarbundler. Jarbundler is not part of the ant core and must add separate but works very well and is easy to use.
