Creating a Library Wrapper Module Project
See Also
Use library wrapper module project template to create a library wrapper module
project. Library wrapper module projects put one or more library
JAR files on a module's classpath. You have to export some or all of the packages as public, or the library wrapper module
becomes useless. The wizard that you use to create the library wrapper module
project automatically exports as public any packages it finds in the JARs.
To create a library wrapper module project:
- Choose File > New Project
(Ctrl-Shift-N).
- From the NetBeans Plug-in Module category, select Library Wrapper Module Project.
- In the Name and Location panel, specify the following:
- Project Name. Specifies the display name of the project. This name
is also used to create the project folder and the context path.
- Project Location. Specifies the location where you want to store the
project metadata and source code.
- Project Folder. Specifies the folder where you want
to store the project metadata and source code. The folder is a concatenation
of the project location and the project name.
- Add to Module Suite. Specifies the module suite to which the library wrapper module belongs. If the module
suite is not currently available in the IDE, click Browse to locate the module suite in your
filesystem.
- Click Finish.
