David Gradwell commented on NETBEANS-4272:
------------------------------------------

Apache NetBeans should be updated to use jpackage which is a part of OpenJDK 
14.0.1 and works!

An example call to jpackage that NetBeans could generate would look like:

{color:#0747a6}jpackage --type dmg --app-version 0.1 --copyright "My Company 
2020" --name PKB --dest /Users/davidjlgradwell/NetBeansDev/PKB/jpackageoutput 
--temp /Users/davidjlgradwell/NetBeansDev/PKB/jpackagetemp --vendor "My 
Company" --icon /Users/davidjlgradwell/NetBeansDev/PKB/PKB.icns --input 
/Users/davidjlgradwell/NetBeansDev/PKB/dist --main-jar PKB.jar --main-class 
com.gradwell.PKB.PKBStartClass --mac-signing-key-user-name "Developer ID 
Application: "{color}

{color:#172b4d}This approach should work for both Ant and Maven.  It would 
remove the problematic dependency on JavaFX.  {color}

{color:#172b4d}jpackage is described at:  
[https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/14/docs/specs/man/jpackage.html] {color}

>    Affects Versions: 12.0
>         Environment: Mac OS X Catalina 10.15.4 with NetBeans running with

> *Issue*
> Package as DMG Image (using ANT) fails with Error: Bundler "DMG Installer" 
> (dmg) failed to produce a bundle.
> No way to produce a native installer using NetBeans 12.0.
> *NetBeans Version*
> 12.0 beta 3
> *Steps to reproduce:*
>  # Install fresh copy of 12.0 beta 3.
>  # Change netbeans.conf to point to a JDK 1.8 installation home. E.g.
> netbeans_jdkhome="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_221.jdk/Contents/Home"
> 3 Create new Project "Java with Ant", "Java Application".
>  # Create a single Java file such as:
> package testmacdmgwithant;
> public class TestMacDMGwithAnt
> { /** * @param args the command line arguments */ public static void 
> main(String[] args) \\{ int a=1; }
> }
>  
>  # Go clean and build and debug to prove it works OK.
>  # Run the .jar in the dist folder to prove it works OK.
>  # Go right click on the project and select "Package as DMG Image"
>  
> End of output is:
> Launching <fx:deploy> in native packager mode...
> No base JDK. Package will use system JRE.
> No base JDK. Package will use system JRE.
> Building DMG package for TestMacOSXPackagingWithAnt
> Found more than one key matching 'Developer ID Application: '

>  Error: Bundler "DMG Installer" (dmg) failed to produce a bundle.
> BUILD FAILED (total time: 10 seconds)
>  No useful information in the log file.
> Notes: 
>  
>  # Packaging works fine with NetBeans 11.3 with the same netbeans_jdkhome as 
> above.
>  # Maven projects do not support Properties/Build/Deployment/Enable Native 
> Packaging Actions in Project Menu.
