| NetBeans Project Files for JDK Demos |
| |
| This directory contains project files for the NetBeans IDE for the all-Java |
| JDK demos (some of the demos involve C code; no NetBeans project files are |
| provided for them at this time). For example, to bring up the Java2D demo |
| in NetBeans, do the following: |
| |
| 1. If you do not already have NetBeans, download it from |
| http://www.netbeans.org/ |
| and follow the directions for installation. |
| 2. Start NetBeans. |
| 3. From the main menu, choose File -> Open Project. |
| 4. In the popup window, navigate to the JDK distribution and within that to |
| the "demo" directory. |
| 5. Press the "Open Project Folder" button. That will open all of the demos |
| (for which there are project files) as subprojects. |
| 6. There should now be a Java2D project in the Projects tab of the IDE. |
| Right-click on the project name and choose an appropriate action, e.g. |
| Clean and Build Project |
| and then |
| Run Project |
| Some, but not all, of the projects can be run as applets as well. |
| |
| Documentation and support for NetBeans is available at the NetBeans web site: |
| http://www.netbeans.org/ |
| |
| Notes: |
| 1. jconsole-plugin is a special kind of project, a plugin for jconsole. |
| Therefore it is not possible to run the project directly from the IDE. |
