A second review of netbeans quickstart using maven.

This time I was able to time the process; with all the installers in hand it took 33 minuets. The netbeans install took 10 mins just on its own. A good reminder to me that maven is only easy after you have used it once and it has had a chance to download things.

I am making another mvn assembly:assembly in order to try the instructions for using the jars by hand

Here is the stuff what needs fixing -

If the download dependent maven libraries step doesn't work - build the project and then run the download libraries step again for good measure.

Using NetBeans 6.7.1 and running the application. Appeared to work but got the following error

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException

the hand build version needs the following packages

import org.geotools.swing.JMapFrame;
import org.geotools.swing.data.JFileDataStoreChooser;

Attached is the quick-start instructions ...

The feedback we are looking for is...
- instructions that don't work or are confusing
- any questions that come up when you are looking at the code

When trying out the instructions please use one of the maven options with 2.6-SNAPSHOT (since we don't have the 2.6-RC out yet!)

If you can give it a go and ask questions clarifications on GeoTools users list. That will help us with feedback; and perhaps help us with more people willing to help test the instructions.

Yes, that would be great. Let me know what kind of feedback you're looking for, and I'll do my best!

Actually Tom could we ask you to test a draft version of the
"quickstart" document? we have two sets of instructions one for
eclipse and one for netbeans... let me know and I can email you a copy
off list.
