Embedded browser and browser DOM for JavaEE Apps
Hi list,
I am writing a plugin for Netbeans. The book "Pro Apache Netbeans" is
very good and really shows the power of the platform 🙂
What I would like to do is to get the embedded browser (and Browser DOM)
enabled for a Java WebApplication.
I use an embedded server in a Maven based project. Similar to e.g.
embedded tomcat.
Normally it is only enabled when selecting package "war" in the POM and
using an external server like Glassfish or Payara. Trying to trigger the
browser to load the URL of the started server in an action doesn't work
since the API is not public:
WebBrowser wb = BrowserUISupport.getDefaultBrowserChoice(true);
BrowserSupport.create(wb);
Is there an easy way to start the embedded browser and point it to a
running server? (while making the connection to Netbeans to enable the
browser DOM and connecting the treeview to the UI in the browser).
This is show in this video for 'war' based Apps and Glassfish:

Thanks for any pointers.
Best regards, Bart

Assume a “server instances” is setup and configured for use during running
with the developed web app deployed to it right?
Does anything here help? (
https://netbeans.apache.org/kb/docs/webclient/html5-gettingstarted.html#_using_the_embedded_webkit_browser
)
Or maybe something with the “google search” plugin tutorial (
https://netbeans.apache.org/tutorials/74/nbm-google.html
) project which opens a browser of help?
Or another example here (

)?

Apparently not.
Best is always to put sample code on GitHub, explain in the README what's
working and what's not and then post that here so people have something to
work with.

Is there nobody on this list who knows this? And would like to help me?
