Thank you for your quick reply.
Nearly 15 years ago I started to develop a stand-alone program to show genealogy data based on gedcom format. Now I want to try to integrate this in Ancestris as a report. I will first do it only for myself to prove whether I can get this working. So I currently do not need to make changes to the original code.
According to your proposal I have deleted the project directory and deinstalled NetBeans 19 and installed NetBeans 12.5 instead. And I had to install Java 11 (version 11.0.22+7) because NetBeans 12.5 does not run with a higher Java version (Java download from "
https://www.openlogic.com/openjdk-downloads?field_java_parent_version_target_id=406&field_operating_system_target_id=All&field_architecture_target_id=All&field_java_package_target_id=All").
Product Version: Apache NetBeans IDE 12.5
Java: 11.0.22; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 11.0.22+7-adhoc..jdk11u
Runtime: OpenJDK Runtime Environment 11.0.22+7-adhoc..jdk11u
System: Windows 10 version 10.0 running on amd64; Cp1252; de_DE (nb)
User directory: C:\Users\Andreas\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\12.5
Cache directory: C:\Users\Andreas\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache\12.5
But the problems are the same ones:
C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\NetBeansProjects\AncestrisCore\build.xml:7: The following error occurred while executing this line:
C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\NetBeansProjects\AncestrisCore\nbproject\build-impl.xml:41: Cannot find NetBeans build harness.
Check that nbplatform.custom.netbeans.dest.dir and nbplatform.custom.harness.dir are defined.
On a developer machine these are normally defined in C:\Users\Andreas\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\12.5\build.properties=C:\Users\Andreas\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\12.5/build.properties
but for automated builds you should pass these properties to Ant explicitly.
C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\NetBeansProjects\AncestrisCore\ancestris.app\build.xml:7: The following error occurred while executing this line:
C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\NetBeansProjects\AncestrisCore\ancestris.app\nbproject\build-impl.xml:44: Cannot find C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\netbeans_platform_12.5\harness\build.xml imported from C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\NetBeansProjects\AncestrisCore\ancestris.app\nbproject\build-impl.xml
Ancestris.zip (downloaded July 2023) has directories platform and harness. But I do not know where to place them in the project directory.
