2 Agenda What Is NetBeans? What Is GlassFish/Sun Java System Application Server? NetBeans Tour Configuration/Troubleshooting Other Features and Road Map Resources

3 What Is NetBeans? All Free, All Open Source 100% Java, runs anywhere that JDK 5 is available Three Things: > A Platform > An Integrated Development Environment > A Community

4 NetBeans TM Software Day at 2005 JavaOne Tokyo

5 NetBeans TM Software Day at 2005 JavaOne Tokyo

6 NetBeans TM Software Day at 2005 JavaOne Tokyo

7 What Is GlassFish/Sun Java System Application Server? GlassFish: An Open Source Project For Developing the Java EE 5 Reference Implementation > Sun Java System Application Server v9.x: Sun's Branded Version of the GlassFish Binaries. > Three Things Change: The Name The License The Install Program > Service/Support are Available

8 NetBeans Tour Demo Screen Layout Top Level Menus The Big Four: > Projects > Files > Runtime > Favorites Project System Based on Ant

9 Configuration/Troubleshooting The user directory is where all configuration information is stored: > Preferences > Settings > Optional modules (plug-ins) On *ix, look at the.netbeans directory that is under the user's home directory On Windows, look at the.netbeans directory that is under Documents and Settings\<userid>

10 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd)

11 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) User directory can be given any name/location that you want just change the setting in etc/netbeans.conf. You can have multiple user directories. > Only one in use per running NetBeans IDE... >... but you can run multiple instances of the NetBeans IDE.

12 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) Tools > Options Demo

13 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) Tools > Java Platform Manager Demo

14 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) Tools > Template Manager Demo

15 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) Tools > Module Manager Demo

16 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) Tools > Update Center Demo

17 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) And if you really want to customize things... The IDE can be extended via plug-in modules. There are tutorials:

18 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) If code completion doesn't display JDK Javadocs > Check Tools > Java Platform (Source tab) If you cannot get a connection to Java DB > Make sure Derby has been started Tools > Java DB Database > Start Java DB Server If code completion stops working or causes problems > Close all open projects > Close the IDE > Delete this subdirectory and all its contents from the user directory: var/cache/mdrstorage

19 Configuration/Troubleshooting (cont'd) Tips for resolving various issues available in the NetBeans FAQ: Remember: whatever problem you encounter, uninstalling and then reinstalling the NetBeans IDE is usually not the best solution. > Instead, shutdown the IDE > Save any templates that you modified > Remove or rename the user directory > Restart the IDE. Preferences will have to be set again and you will have to copy in any templates that you saved

20 Other Features/Road Map All the tools needed to create professional crossplatform desktop, enterprise, web, and mobile applications. Open Source and Free Out of Box Full Support for: > Java SE 6 > Java EE 5 >... and more Extended Features via Packs Demo Profiler Mobility Enterprise NetBeans IDE 5.5 C/C++ Visual Web

21 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) NetBeans packs are an evolution toward running all Sun tools on a common NetBeans binary > In the past, they have used different versions of NetBeans as their underlying IDE. JFluid Sun Java Studio Mobililty Sun Java Studio Enterprise Sun Studio Sun Java Studio Creator Profiler Mobility Pack Enterprise Pack C/C++ Pack Visual Web Pack

22 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) Profiler Integrated Performance Profiling Tools: > CPU Time > Thread State > Memory Usage/Memory Leak Detection

23 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) Mobility Pack Award winning support for Java ME development > Connected Limited Device Configuration/Mobile Information Device Profile > And now, support for Connected Device Configuration too! (RC1) Visual Development Tools Emulator Support Device Fragmentation Solutions

24 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) Enterprise Pack Visualize, analyze, and edit real-world XML Schema, WSDL, and XML instance documents Develop secure, identity-enabled Java EE Web services Design BPEL business processes

25 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) C/C++ Pack NetBeans is more than a Java IDE Supports features you know from the Java IDE: > Navigation, code folding > Code completion, templates > Make file mgm't

26 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) Visual Web Pack Everything you can do in Java Studio Creator 2, except: > Visual binding to EJBs and web services > The portlet development support Advantages over Java Studio Creator: > Now you only need one IDE :-) > Access to Java EE 5 features (EJB3, etc.)

27 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) NetBeans IDE Scheduled for May, 2007 Two Things: > Alignment with Sun Java System Application Server 9.1 > P1 bug fixes

28 Other Features/Road Map (cont'd) NetBeans IDE 6.0 Improved Editor! Improved Support for Scripting Languages New Installer Continue Enhancements to: > Visual Web Pack (achieve parity with Java Studio Creator 2) > SOA Tools (SeeBeyond integration) > C/C++ support > Profiler (heap walker, etc.) > Mobility Pack (just one, with both CLDC and CDC support) And More...
