NETBEANS PLATEFORM HOW TO
NETBEANS PLATEFORM SOFTWARE

This article describes how to create a simple application using version 4.1 of NetBeans platform. The browser will be able to display PNG, JPEG and GIF image files and you can use any IDE - or even none at all - to create it. By the end of this article you'll be able to use existing components to construct a file browser capable of copying, deleting and renaming files as well editing any text-based file. Ironically, the two most recent production versions of the NetBeans IDE don't even offer support for creating platform modules, though the latest development release does. You don't have to use the NetBeans IDE to benefit from the platform, in fact I generally use Eclipse. Next month, I'll follow up with another article that describes how to create a custom application using your own code.

This article introduces the NetBeans platform and shows you how you can get started by reusing existing components. This will allow you to spend more time on the business logic and less time on the infrastructure development common to any GUI application. Instead, I'll explain how to get a head start towards creating desktop applications by reusing the infrastructure on which the IDE itself is built. I want to be clear from the beginning: this is not an article about how to use the IDE. When developers think of NetBeans, they typically think of the popular open-source IDE.
