DevFaqVersionNumber
There are two ways to set the version number shown in the Help… About dialog.
-
The easy way is to set the system property
netbeans.buildnumber
to some value in your application. -
The harder way is to put this key/value
currentVersion=My Product 1.2.3
into the file named"branding/modules/org-netbeans-core.jar/org/netbeans/core/ui/Bundle.properties"
below your suite, then rebuild and run. -
In NB 6.5 and later is the file location different:
"branding/core/core.jar/org/netbeans/core/startup/Bundle.properties"
Within your branding-module use Maven placeholders in Bundle.properties and within the pom.xml filter the bundle by the maven-resources-plugin.
Note: Some of the files below are ignored by default in version control by Netbeans so you might need to add them to preserve the changes.
src/main/nbm-branding/core/core.jar/org/netbeans/core/startup/Bundle.properties:
currentVersion=My app ${project.version}
LBL_splash_window_title=Starting My app ${project.version}
src/main/nbm-branding/modules/org-netbeans-core-windows.jar/org/netbeans/core/windows/view/ui/Bundle.properties:
CTL_MainWindow_Title=My app ${project.version}
CTL_MainWindow_Title_No_Project=My app ${project.version}
src/main/nbm-branding/modules/org-netbeans-core.jar/org/netbeans/core/ui/Bundle.properties:
LBL_ProductInformation=My app ${project.version}
pom.xml:
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/nbm-branding</directory>
<!-- f.e. allow replacing ${project.version} in all property files below src/main/nbm-branding -->
<includes>

Apache NetBeans is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF).
Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects.
While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
This wiki is an experiment pending Apache NetBeans Community approval.
