![]() I used Inno Setup installer for Windows to create my native installer. I will be demonstrating both methods below. Use a native installer to bundle only the application files and download and copy the JRE files from a web server during the course of the installation. Use a native installer to bundle the JRE files along with the application files. I figured out two one-step approaches that allow applications to run on client machines and where no pre-installed Java is required. I will also provide scripts that you can modify and use to automatically generate the native installer in your NetBeans project dist folder. ![]() In the following paragraphs, I will show you how to package your application using the Inno Setup native installer for Windows. For example, if your application is built on top of NetBeans 8, then the client machine requires Java 7 preinstalled on it.įortunately, NetBeans allows you to extend the build process to suit your requirements. This forces you to follow a two-step approach, wherein before, proceeding for application installation, one has to first install a version of JRE that is capable of launching the installer. The built-in installer, however, is Java-based and requires a certain version of Java pre-installed on client computers. NetBeans IDE provides an easy way to create an installer for your NetBeans Platform projects. In a typical manufacturing industry scenario where control rooms are equipped with the latest state-of-the-art facility to operate a plant, it may come as a surprise to you that there is hardly any computer that has Java installed on it! On the other hand, there is limited information available in publications that talk about applications of Java in the manufacturing Industries. The Internet is filled with blogs, tutorial, and manuals that indicate the popularity of Java for developing modern applications.
