Download and install NetBeans 7.0.1

Go to http://netbeans.org/downloads/ in order to download the latest version of NetBeans for your OS/platform.

You can either choose the full download (~200 MB) or just the C/C++ bundle which is about 50 MB.

After downloading NetBeans, you'll need to install it

Installing required modules (plugins)

Using the plugin installer, you need to install the following plugins

  • cvs
  • svn (subversion)
  • git

In NetBeans, just go to the Tools menu and select "Plugins": Netbeans-getting-plugins.png

Checking out the required dependencies

You will need to check out the repositories for the following dependencies:

  • Boost
  • OpenAL
  • OpenSceneGraph (OSG)
  • PLIB
  • SimGear
  • FlightGear

After checking out the repositories, you'll want to use the NetBeans project wizard to CREATE A NEW PROJECT FROM EXISTING SOURCES for each dependency.

For CMake-based projects, you'll want to point NetBeans to the CMakeLists.txt file instead of the configure script.

Next, you should set up project dependencies.

Disable code indexing

By default, NetBeans will keep on trying and index all your sources, this may slow down the IDE considerably, so it's a good idea to disable this feature if you don't need it (CONTEXT MENU/RIGHT CLICK on project, go to CODE ASSISTANCE and then uncheck the marked entry).

Setting up the Jenkins build server

That's also pretty easy, just go to SERVICES and then right click on "Hudson Builders": Setting-up-jenkins-CI-in-netbeans-step1.png


Next, fill in the URL of the Jenkins CI server: Setting-up-jenkins-CI-in-netbeans-step2.png


Once completed, you should see this: Jenkins-integration-in-netbeans.png
