Hi, Not sure that is what you want. ((A small help can be If you get the sources, do a first build: ant you can then do ant index-layer-paths
this will create in nbbuild/build/generated layers.txt and services.txt where given a " UI element" " mimetype" "project type" you can find which module provide it (this is a bit too textual). )) Maybe you want a more complex visualization, with rectangle and edge but I guess should be some layout and "dynamic page" to filter ( or 8K monitors :p). Modules are legion.

Is the book still up to date? Just asking. Cheers Chris Von: Geertjan Wielenga Gesendet: Mittwoch, 6.

Sthg., that would help newcomers to understand the code of NB. > In many ways, the current GitHub structure provides the eagle's view you seek: https://github.com/apache/netbeans Rather than it being a long list of modules, the above categorizes them into their clusters, reflecting what you see in your NetBeans installation directory. Indeed, grepping is a good approach to find the code you need to work with. You can also search directly in the GitHub repo on-line in the web interface. The dependencies of any modules are always listed in the project.xml file of a module.
