Johannes, thanks a lot, I'm getting progress.

I have both Fiji and ImageJ installed. For Fiji the generated jars are copied to /Application/Fiji.app/jars which is ok. For ImageJ thay are copied to /Application/ImageJ/jars, but that folder is not used by the ImageJ application. There the ij.jar is buried somewhere in the package contents. In my previous ant build.xml I pointed to this files in order to run and debug IJ from netbeans. My users does not have Fiji, they need a very simple approach, so they have standard ImageJ installed and the only thing they need to do is to copy the jar file I send them to the plugins folder. The plugin is also started from the startup macros.txt and the imagej menu is hidden. So I have to think about a new approach to deploy my software to my users. > >> 5- The process_pixels application does not quit properly, I have to stop >> it from netbeans. > > Sorry, do you have more information about that? I do not understand the > issue. after quitting the application from the file menu or command-Q it froze and I had to force quit it from netbeans. But for some unknown reason it works now, maybe the 'imagej.app.directory' setting? don't bother! > >> 6- My software is dependent from other plugins, such as particle8 from >> Gabriel Landini's Morphology, can/is this incorporated in the imagej >> maven repository? > > The easiest way to do that would probably to install it locally for the > moment.

Manifest mf = context.getManifest(); String vn = mf.getImplementationBuild(); thanks for your help, Gerrit. _______________________________________________ ImageJ-devel mailing list [email protected] http://imagej.net/mailman/listinfo/imagej-devel
