Hello!
I’ve managed to get my Netbeans Platform (8.2) application running in
MacOS 10.15 Catalina (I know next to nothing about MacOS). In Windows
10 and Ubuntu 18.04, my application runs at all times using the icon I
have branded it with. However, in MacOS, that is not the case. I am
bundling OpenJDK 8u212-b04 with all three installations.
In the MacOS dock, my application shows up with my branded icon, and
once clicked, my branded icon starts bouncing. But about the same time
that my application’s splash screen appears, the icon changes to a
generic java icon, and stays that way until the application ends, at
which time the dock icon changes back to my branded icon. I have
included a couple of screen shots to show this.
I converted my icon to the ICNS format, added that to the project, and
have set the app.icon.icns property in my suite’s project.properties. I
assume that this is working, or else I wouldn’t be getting my brand icon
at all.
Also, it seems that the JDialog icons are also not correct in MacOS
either, as the generic Java icon shows up in the dialog boxes instead of
the information, question, etc. icon. I have included a couple of
screenshots of that as well.
Is there something else I need to do on the NetBeans side, or is this
just a consequence of Java on MacOS?
this is a bit tricky.
Take a look at app.conf in XXX-app. You can also check the
etc/netbeans.conf of your NetBeans installation.
I use this, i start my App at the moment from the Project/bin
default_options="--branding tachyon -J-Xms256m -J-Xmx256m
-J-Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true
-J-Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true
-J-Xdock:icon=$progdir/../$APPNAME/applicationIcon.icns
-J-Xdock:name=Tachyon"
The icon is not shown, and the dock name is still java.
Maybe you can investigate a little bit.
Are you using Maven? The part for the installer.
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>

</plugin>

But at the moment the installer (10.0 - 11.2) is broken, if you try to
install your app. I got issues with missing Apple packages:

I use the RELEASE112 of the NetBeans Platform. I just created a issue:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-3342
