Thanks very much Neil & Michael for the clarification and the helpful options
to consider. I now plan to bundle a JDK with the application and set myapp.conf
jdkhome param to refer to it. Eventually I'll look into jlink to trim down the
JDK although I'm a bit concerned about missing something since there are a lot
of application modules, many obfuscated, plus all the jars that are part of the
netbeans platform itself. I've seen some docs and demos on simpler java
applications but none on a NB Platform Ant application. Hopefully it'll be
basically a case of jdeps with a recursive flag to scan all jars. If you happen
to know of any references that would be helpful for understanding jlink in the
context of a NB Platform Ant application then that would be much appreciated.

And of course, https://github.com/apache/netbeans-tools/tree/master/nbpackage
jpackage is problematic for platform applications, which is why
nbpackage was written.
