Bug Description

Binary package hint: netbeans

Default examples of applications which can be built with the Netbeans Platform are the Feed Reader application and the Paint Application.

The Paint Application example (paintapp) can be distributed as a Zip file using the Build Zip Distribution option on the Project's menu, or by running "ant suite.build-zip"

The build of this target fails because a couple of exe files used to builld the Zip distribution are missing.

The error log ends with:

===
BUILD FAILED
/usr/share/netbeans/6.0.1/harness/suite.xml:197: Warning: Could not find file /usr/share/netbeans/6.0.1/harness/launchers/app.exe to copy.
===

The files missing are:

/usr/share/netbeans/6.0.1/harness/launchers/app.exe and
/usr/share/netbeans/6.0.1/harness/launchers/app_w.exe

Don't know why these files aren't distributed.

Current workaround:
$ sudo touch /usr/share/netbeans/6.0.1/harness/launchers/app.exe
$ sudo touch /usr/share/netbeans/6.0.1/harness/launchers/app_w.exe

I will fix this in harness/suite.xml. Reason why these files are not distributed is that we are not able to build them from source when we build netbeans package.

It will be fixed for NB 6.1 packages. We will use mingw to compile necessary exe files from sources.
