Hello, I can share the CoolBeans installers but they are no big deal, not sure if they are good enough for NetBeans...
My macOS DMG uses a variation of the Carl J. Mosca script does (Carl's script has a bug as it assumes the location never changes; I would make a PR if I wouldn't have changed so much stuff). My Windows installer uses InnoSetup and has again a very basic script, based on what Stephen Cumminger shared on the mailing list a while back. It's very basic, but gets the job done of copying the files, creating shortcuts and providing an uninstaller. I believe these are actually enough for end users, but NetBeans always had a much more fancy installer, with Glassfish and many other things. Especially for macOS I always wanted a clean drag-and-drop DMG, no package with a wizard. I think it's important that both the DMG and the EXE are digitally signed. Windows particularly has very scary warning messages for unsigned EXEs. --emi On Sat, Feb 2, 2019 at 5:14 PM Geertjan Wielenga <geertjan.wiele...@googlemail.com.invalid> wrote: > > Hi all, > > Tried to gather different threads together in the below to get a thorough > overview of where and why we are where we are: > > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/State+of+the+Apache+NetBeans+Installers > > Thanks, > > Gj --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@netbeans.incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@netbeans.incubator.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
