Hello I do not know if this is a bug. I have checked JIRA and nothing appeared to me.
I am using Product Version: Apache NetBeans IDE 11.0 (Build incubator-netbeans-release-404-on-20190319) on JDK-11. Create New Project Select "Java with Ant Select "Java Application" Accept all defaults and tick box "Create Main Class" Go to Project Properties > Build > Packaging Enable the box "Create JLINK distribution" Enable "Create Launcher" Click OK to save properties. Using RMB select "Clean and Build" The Output window shows <snip> To run this application from the command line without Ant, try: /usr/java/jdk-11/bin/java -cp /home/emma/NetBeansProjects/JavaApplication28/dist/JavaApplication28.jar javaapplication28.JavaApplication28 -init-macrodef-copylibs: creating macro http://www.netbeans.org/ns/j2se-project/3:copylibs -do-jar-copylibs: Skipped because property 'do.mkdist' not set. -do-jar-delete-manifest: Deleting /home/emma/NetBeansProjects/JavaApplication28/build/null939241021 -do-jar-without-libraries: -do-jar-with-libraries: -post-jar: -do-jar: -pre-deploy: -check-jlink: *-do-deploy:Skipped because property 'do.jlink.internal' not set.-post-deploy:* deploy: jar: BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 0 seconds) The build script does not build a jlink image. I cannot find property* 'do.jlink.internal' *anywhere. I have built a jlink image successfully in one of the previous Netbeans versions but cannot recall how I did it. Any clues on investigating this matter would be appreciated. Thank you.
