Go to the "Libraries" area and choose "Add" in the "Module Dependencies" section. Choose the: --- "Autopsy-core" library to get access to the Autopsy services. --- NetBeans "Lookup API" library so that your module can be discovered by Autopsy. -- If you later determine that you need to pull in external JAR files, then you will use the "Wrapped Jar" section to add them in. -- Note, you will also need to come back to this section if you update the platform. You may need to add a new dependency for the version of the Autopsy-core that comes with the updated platform. -- Autopsy requires that all modules restart Autopsy after they are installed. Configure your module this way under Build -> Packaging. Check the box that says Needs Restart on Install. - +
