Creating a Library Wrapper Module Project

See Also

Use a library wrapper module project template to create a library wrapper module project. Library wrapper module projects put one or more library JAR files on a module's classpath. You have to export some or all of the packages as public, and you need to have a regular module depend on it, or the library wrapper module becomes useless. The wizard that you use to create the library wrapper module project automatically exports as public any packages it finds in the JARs.

To create a library wrapper module project:

  1. Choose File > New Project (Ctrl-Shift-N).
  2. From the NetBeans Modules category, select Library Wrapper Module.
  3. In the Select Library panel, specify the following:
  4. In the Name and Location panel, specify the following:
  5. Click Next.
  6. In the Basic Module Configuration panel, specify the following:
  7. Click Finish.
