How to build Netbeans Project in command line without Netbeans

[Bizu]

Hi,

I have a Netbeans project that I want to build with the command line on another computer without Netbeans installed. I know Netbeans has a nbproject folder with build-impl.xml and other xml files. I was wondering if anyone knows how to modify the build file so it doesn't need the files in the nbproject folder. Or any other way to to build this project without the need of Netbeans. If someone could help me or point me somewhere I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

You also need all your dependency jars on the other system in the same location ant expects them.

I suggest avoiding ant for precisely this reason. Use maven instead. NB supports both and they have exactly the same effect.

Oh come now.  Ant properties can be set on the command line, in properties files, etc. that change the location of dependent jars, etc.   I do this all the time when building with ant.  Maven is no panacea for dependency management.  I just went to rebuild an older open source project and cannot because the dependencies that it depending on are no longer available through Maven’s dependency resolver.    So if you are not maintaining a local repository, later on down the road, it might bite you

Ant and Maven are tools and each has its strengths and weaknesses.

Just my opinion of course.
