Java EE 8 API Module for Inclusion with NetBeans

Since the Java EE 8 Platform is not currently an available choice when
creating an Apache NetBeans project, I have put together a Java EE 8 API
module for inclusion in Apache NetBeans.  To create the module, I followed
the same structure as the existing javaee7.api module.  At this time, the
javaee8.api module resides in my GitHub repository.  Since I have not yet
added any new features or modules to Apache NetBeans, can someone point me
into the correct direction as to the next step towards getting this API
included with the Apache NetBeans distribution?

https://github.com/juneau001/javaee8.api

I went through the external dependencies and I believe I've gotten the
licenses correct for each, but those may need to be looked at just to be
certain.  I've also not been able to make the "Java EE 8" platform
available as a drop-down menu selection for generation of new Apache
NetBeans projects in my development environment.  If this module is
included in the Apache NetBeans distro, then someone may need to help me
out with that as I'm not quite sure what files need to be registered in
order to make the platform available for use in projects.

Thanks in advance for your assistance and guidance...it is appreciated.

Re: Java EE 8 API Module for Inclusion with NetBeans

Posted by Josh Juneau <ju...@gmail.com>.
I have code that I've been working on to add Java EE 8 support to NetBeans (mainly modifying maven-j2ee module and a few others), but I have been unsuccessful in making it work properly, thus far.  Once I get it to a fully functional state then I plan to submit a PR.

I'm still working on the code, but I can certainly try to publish it to my GitHub account if someone else would like to try and help out.

After we are able to add Java EE 8 support, we need to document exactly what needs to be updated in order to add support for a new platform release.

Definitely too late for all that for this release, though would be
excellent if we were to have a full specification for what we need to
enable us to say that we support Java EE 8, here:

Re: Java EE 8 API Module for Inclusion with NetBeans

Posted by Vano Beridze <va...@gmail.com>.
I've been using Maven and Adam Bien's archtype in NetBeans 8.2.

By Java EE 8 support I mean:
1. Java EE 8 web maven project support natively
2. Support for generation of various xml files (web.xml, persistence.xml,
...) with correct headers
This is what comes to my mind at this point.

Re: Java EE 8 API Module for Inclusion with NetBeans

Posted by Geertjan Wielenga <ge...@googlemail.com.INVALID>.
Seems to me that if you're using Maven, which is more strongly the focus of
NetBeans than before, that it's not clear what "Java EE 8 support" means.
I.e., if you use a Java EE 8 Maven archetype[1], such as Adam Bien's
archetype, and deploy to GlassFish 5.1 (which you can download and start
from Apache NetBeans 11), then you in fact have Java EE 8 support and
nothing more is needed.

http://www.adam-bien.com/roller/abien/entry/java_ee_8_essentials_archetype

It's not clear to me what else is needed for Java EE 8 support, except if
you're focused on Ant, which Apache NetBeans 11 is not. Maybe for the next
release, i.e., 3 months from now, assuming quarterly releases, we should
determine what Java EE 8 support means.

For now, the fact that we are managing to integrate Java EE from the Oracle
donation for the first time, is a big step forward in itself.

Re: Java EE 8 API Module for Inclusion with NetBeans

Hello,

I'm really interested in getting Java EE 8 support in NetBeans.
Is there any way I can help in that regard?

Re: Java EE 8 API Module for Inclusion with NetBeans

Posted by Josh Juneau <ju...@gmail.com>.
Hi Geertjan,

Thanks for reaching out.  I had made the required changes to j2ee.core and
I've re-built my version of NetBeans, but the "Java EE 8" options are still
not appearing in the drop-down selections.  I've successfully added "Java
EE 8 API Library" and "Java EE 8 Web API Library" as selectable libraries
within the Ant Library Manager, but still unable to get the integration
within the project dialogs.  I'm working on that and plan to open a PR with
all required changes once I've gotten it to work.

Thanks and I'll keep the group posted.
