ENGLISH / How to run Ancestris from NetBeans?

« on: April 03, 2024, 22:39:56 »

Hello,

please be aware that I am neither familiar with using NetBeans nor ant!

Trying to run Ancestris from NetBeans using button "Run Project (Ancestris-12) (F6)" results in error message:

Code: [Select]

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\19\build.properties=C:\Users\Andreas\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\19/build.properties
but for automated builds you should pass these properties to Ant explicitly.

Further details please see below.

Building/running "ancestris.app" results in:

Code: [Select]

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
Building/running "core" throws same messages with "core" instead of "ancestris.app".
Folder C:\Users\Andreas\Documents\netbeans_platform_12.5 does not exist.

Hoping somebody can tell me what I am doing wrong and/or what I have to do.

Thanks and regards
Andreas
