develop plugins with netbeans - using jar

[Nicola B.]

Dear all,
I have a little problem. I developed some Java objects (that I have
included in a jar file), and now I need to use them into a new ImageJ
plugin (that I'm developing under netbeans).
How can I add this jar to imageJ netbeans project?

After correct configure environment with "Debugging ImageJ Plugins in
NetBeans", I try with:

ImageJ properties --> java sources-->add Folder

and specify path, but when I try to add it follow message appears:
"Package Folder Already use in Project.
The following folders you selected are already used in this or another
project. On package folder can only be used in one project in one
package folder list (source packages or test packages)."

..probably this is not correct way..
How can I proceed?

Thank you very much,

Nicola, I think you want to add the jar to the "libraries" category of
the netbeans project properties.  --- Mike

That should work but you might run into a problem I had with some
missing swing layout libraries.  My plugin would run in netbeans but
not outside.  You can either put the both the plugin jar and the other
jar in your plugins folder, or explicitly include the later in the
build.xml file for your project.
