Milos Kleint commented on MNBMODULE-54:
---------------------------------------
have you tried the run-ide goal? that could help in the simple case of having a
module/bunch of modules and running them against a given netbeans ide/platform
installation..
In general, I might revisit the support for executing the application, the only
streamlined version is the current run-platform one which relies on building
the whole app from repositories/sources.. Anything that relies on external
installation is sort of error prone and I'd rather replace it with an IDE only
approach. In either case, having compile-time maven classpath unaligned with
the runtime execution that points to an external installation is suboptimal.
> Ability to use run-platform with a nbm project

> Key: MNBMODULE-54
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNBMODULE-54
> Project: Maven 2.x Netbeans Module Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Michel Rasschaert
> Assignee: Milos Kleint

> Currently to test a nbm project the only solution is to use run-ide. When
> doing this the tested module is mixed with all the IDE things (java, etc.).
> If the nbm is developed to be included in an nbm-application later on this
> would be nice to be able to run it in a basic platform instead of the IDE.
> I see several possible implementations :
> h4. A. Expect a basic platform application on the filesystem somewhere
> This is the simplest solution to implement. The user is expected to have
> unzipped somewhere a base Netbeans platform application (which is very easy
> to create with Netbeans).
> It could be configured with
> {{<plaformInstallation>....</platformInstallation>}} and use the branding
> token to find the correct executable and configuration file to modify as is
> done with run-ide.
> The problem with this approach is that the user has to know what
> cluster/modules to include in his base platform application (usually only the
> plaformX cluster with some modules disabled).
> h4. B. Build this basic platform based on the dependencies specified in the
> pom.
> Ideally we would build this basic platform installation based on the
> dependencies of the POM but I think this is not trivial at all ...
> ----
> I think I can provide a patch for solution A in a few days if you are
> interested.
