How to add an existing JInternalFrame to my Netbeans project? - swing

Since "initComponents" methods and settings fixed, I can't find how to add an existing JInternalFrame to my Netbeans project. Can someone point me in the right directions?

You can do one of two thing:
1 - copy the files of the jInternalFrame that you want to add to the folder of the project.
2 - drag from the file explorer that you use directly to your project tab in netbeans.
In both approaches you have to be careful to copy both the .java and the .form files.

After moving my Windows Store App project I can't compile it because .resw not found

I have a Problem with a Windows Store App.
I moved the folder and now I cant compile it, I get the error:
Fehler 2 File C:\[old path]\Strings\en-US\Resources.resw not found. C:\[new path]\MakePRI
I dont know how to fix it because the app is in the same relative path in the project as before.
any hints for a solution?
This item was probably added to the project with absolute path. You can fix that in one of two ways:
In SolutionExplorer remove Resources.resw from the project. Then click on Show All Files icon to make the file appear in its folder although it's not included in the project (I understand you did copy it over when moving the project). Now right click on the file and select Include In Project. After that you can again turn off Show All Files.
In Solution Explorer right click on the project and select Unload Project. Now right click on the project again and select Edit ProjectName.csproj. In the file find Resources.resw and replace the existing tag (and any subtags) with <PRIResource Include="Strings\en-US\Resources.resw" />. Save the changes and close the file. Right click on the project again and select Reload Project.
I got into this problem and I found an easy solution. Open the project and it will show the error. Now right click on the App name in Solution Explorer (on the right hand side) and select Build.This will set the path again and the project can be run now.

FDT - Create a Project with existing source files, assets, folders etc

I am using FDT 5 and would like to create a new project with already existing source files and assets. When I start up the Project Wizard (New->FDT Project) I browse to the folder I want to make as the project but I cannot proceed as FDT gives me the error:
*"PROJECT_NAME overlaps the location of another project: PROJECT_NAME"*
I have downloaded a flash project (developed in FDT) and would just simply like to make it a project in my FDT environment.
I mean this shouldn't be so complicated right? I don't want to create an entirely new project (its own folder) I want to use the same folder I downloaded and view that project. I am using git so I have to work in the same path, sort of speak.
Any ideas?
EDIT:
Apparently this is an issue with FDT, a small bug. I managed to solve the problem following this:
FDT / Eclipse Error : ‘overlaps the location of another project’
And on the eclipse forum:

How do you collaborate on Flash Builder projects?

Flash builder project files can't be opened on another computer even if the files were copied, for e.g. through version control like git or svn.
Importing and Exporting fxp projects is not possible as we do not want to overwrite files for git or svn unnecessarily.
How do people collaborate on Flash Builder projects without creating new project in Flash Builder and having to set up all the settings for the project again and again for multiple collaborators?
If you import the project using its folder location as per #Sean Fujiwara answer then:
One useful way to collaborate in Flash Builder projects is to utilise environment variables. You can access these using - Window > Preferences > General > Workspace > Linked Resources:
From here you can add a new variable or edit an existing one, from the example above you can see that we use a FRAMEWORK_SOURCE variable which points to the source for our shared framework code, we use a swc but this is handy for debugging errors.
We also have another variable called OUTPUT_FOLDER which in our case points to a folder where we run our project over localhost see example below, to use this in a project, you go to right click project name > Properties > ActionScript Build Path, here you enter the folder name you want creating inside the folder that OUTPUT_FOLDER points to:
When you do a Project > Clean from the menu, all resources from your html-template folder will be copied across to this folder and it should open in a browser.
Now we have been able to check in to SVN our .project and .actionScriptProperities files with few issues. When someone new to the project checks them out, they will get an Error in the Problems panel telling them they don't have for example - OUTPUT_FOLDER\MyProjectName, therefore the project leader should have a document listing all the required variables to be setup in your environment.
Other things you can share are paths to raw font files etc.
The only problem I've had with this approach is sometimes it asks for the path to the SDK if it is different from your location, not had chance to figure this one out yet.
Flash builder project files can't be opened on another computer even
if the files were copied, for e.g. through version control like git or
svn.
Flash builder projects can be imported into the workspace just like other Eclipse projects.
Once you copy them to another computer:
Right click in package explorer and go to Import....
Select General/Existing Projects into Workspace.
Select the folder containing the .project directory.
If you make sure Copy projects into workspaces is deselected, you can commit the files directly from wherever you checked the code out.
This is now solved in Flash Builder 4.7 where you can actually import the project folder as is.

Script Task - Add existing file as link

I've been looking for an answer to this for a bit now but couldn't find anything. I was wondering if it is possible to add an existing file to the project created under the script task in an SSIS package. What I want to be able to do is to add one file called Helper or Utility to the solution and then add that file to all the script tasks for common functions. This is so if I change the class, it gets pushed through to all script tasks.
I know that I can add a reference to a DLL and add it to the GAC. I have tried this and it works. I've also tried adding the file to the projects and that works too.
This is just another solution that I'm trying, just in case I'm not able to deploy the DLL in prod. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
Firstly you need a master copy of your classes, you can copy them from an existing Script Task using the same process below but in reverse.
Open the Editor for the Script Task and on the Property Explorer click on the Project File (the st_[Guid] ), in the Properties window you’ll see the Project Folder location. (This location gets recreated every time you edit the script task)
In explorer, copy your classes to this folder
On the Project Explorer, click on the “Show All Files” icon
Right click on your files and add to Project
You can use regular VS functionality for linking files:
Right click your script project
Add > Existing item...
Select files to be included in your project
In the bottom right corner of the Open file dialog box you have a drop-down with 2 options: "Add" or "Add As Link" - select the latter one and you are done (see image below)
We can not use relative path after adding pages using Add link. Each user need to correct the path before running the project. The script task uses its own path.it doesn't run from package path which is the problem.

Adding an external jar library to Intellij IDEA

I'm having a silly problem : I'm trying to add the Jsoup library (which is just an external jar) to my android application developed in Intellij Idea and it seems and don't do it right .
I put the library in the libs folder , then I went in Project Structure -> modules and selected dependencies , select add global library , select attach source and click ok.
When I write code it is able to automatically import classes and to compile , but when running I get " java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.jsoup.Jsoup"
Copy the .jar file into your lib/ directory.
Right click the new .jar in the lefthand file browser in IntelliJ / Android Studio
Choose "Add as Library..."
Voila!
-Open the External Libraries node on the Left hand panel.
-Select Open Library Settings
-Project structure dialogue opens up.
Select the Libraries.
Click the "+" to browse the file.
![add external jar1
In IntelliJ IDEA 15 you can also access the Project Structure menu item from "File" item in the menu bar. Select Libraries from the list on the left. Click the "+" to browse the file, select it and you're done. It will be added to the "External Libraries" directory in your project.
Have a look at the newer artifacts section. Perhaps you don't add the JAR into your deployment properly.
UPDATE:
I'd like to update my answer based on lessons learned over the past six years since I first answered this question.
The best way to manage 3rd party JAR dependencies in Java projects is to learn Maven (my preference) or Gradle. IntelliJ has terrific integration with both.
If you combine those with an enterprise repository like Nexus you'll have no problems. Your dependencies and versions will be completely specified. Conflicts will be identified for you. Updates will be relatively simple.
