Thanks Emilian, I was able to use that class as the outline of an auto-updater-and-restarter mechanism in my client. I am not really sure what is going on inside all of the InstallSupport, OperationContainer and UpdateElement stuff, but I now have effectively the same behaviour as the Java Web Start application which my Platform client is ultimately replacing.

How to Push NetBeans Plugins Silently to End Users?
Hi all, I am keen to follow the way of "pushing" updates to my NB platform app, that Geertjan and Jiri Rechtacek described a few years ago, in their blog posts and which is referred to in several other places. https://blogs.oracle.com/geertjan/how-to-push-netbeans-plugins-silently-to-end-users https://www.pellissier.co.za/hermien/?p=496 However Jiri's blogpost with details of his plugin and technique seems to have disappeared. Can anyone point me to where I can find that plugin or details/example code to make this happen?
