Netbeans 6.0 + S60 SDK

[FyRE668]

Is there any way to get these emulators working with Netbeans 6.0? From the Netbeans Tools/Java Platforms dialogue, there's no way to add the S60 platform. Can this be done with a hack or will I have to target S40, and then test in the S60 emulator separately, ignoring any S60 specific functionality?

There is a way. Follow http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph..._tools_for_S60

But that's about Eclipse + S60 SDK

NetBeans with SDK will somehow work if you'll use NetBeans 6.1 and S60 3rd SDK without FP (size 159MB)

Read this

P.S. It's surprising it's been already more than a year this problem with some S60 SDK's appeared, but there's still no update or solution to this problem from Nokia side

No, read carefully. It does cover the Netbeans part do.
BTW: I've installed the stuff on two machines today, following the instructions of that WIKI, and

a) finally did overcome my debugging problems
b) could build, debug and deploy a Netbeans made Midlet to my N95

EDIT: I have to admit, the link above doesn't tell you about how to add new platforms. But if you follow the instructions, you'll be able to add S60 3rd using the ordinary "Tools/Java Platform/Add" while pointing to the dir where the S60 MIDP SDK is installed (by default C:\S60\Devices). I have informed the author about this gap in doc already.

Thanks for replying, but that page doesn't have any information regarding Netbeans - there is only a single link to a Nokia site, providing no information. I did manage to get the emulator working, by browsing to the right folder while adding a new emulator, however, bluetooth doesn't actually work with the S60 emulator, which is a shame as that's exactly what I need it for (emulator just throws an error "Failed to initialise Bluetooth subsystem - check hardware is present" even though my PC has bluetooth)

The Sony Ericsson emulators all work flawlessly, it's a pity Nokia can't do something about their broken developer tools really.
