Rick,Just as a quick follow-up, I updated the tutorial file on GitHub to reflect that it was pointing to the wrong modules. Once the team has a chance to review and merge my PR, the tutorial will be updated.

Rick,I just confirmed that it *is* an error in the tutorial. Apparently, that tutorial was written way back with NetBeans 7.4:TemplateRegistration in NB7.4This screenshot is from my NB 7.4 installation, and as you can see, the /TemplateRegistration/ class used to be in the DataSystems API module. However, by the time NB 8.2 was released, it was moved to the File Templates module. So, a lot of development must have happened to cause the /TemplateRegistration/ class (as well as the rest of the related classes) to be moved into their own module.I'm betting you could file an issue against that tutorial and whenever someone has time they would fix the information...-SC On 2/23/23 3:15 PM, Sean Carrick wrote:Rick,I'm going to go with an error in the tutorial. I only say this because all of the tutorials currently need to be reviewed for accuracy and, in my installation of NetBeans 16, when I enter "TemplateRegistration" into the search field of the *Add Module Dependency* dialog, this is what shows up:TemplateRegistration Likewise, when I type "NbBundle" in the same search field, I get this: NbBundleIt could very well be that the tutorial you are working through has not been updated in a while and is still referencing where the classes /used to be/ located. Many changes have happened with the APIs over the decades.This is why I had said in my last email to "type in" the name of the class you need. It will filter the modules list to only those modules that contain a class with that name.-SC On 2/23/23 3:28 AM, Rick Tee wrote:Redhat 7.9 Netbeans 16 JDK 1.8From the Netbeans templates tutorial: "Right-click the module in the Projects window, choose Properties, and use the Libraries tab to add dependencies on Datasystems API and Utilities API."I followed the tutorial twice from scratch the result is the same.Looking through the project the file causing errors is: package-info.java. Errors are:Cannot find symbol class TemplateRegistration Cannot find symbol class Messages Package org.netbeans.api.templates does not exist Package org.openide.util.NbBundle does not exist Something missing from the installation? or error/s in the tutorial? Apologies for the replies to wrong address.

To add these dependencies, click on the /Libraries/ node in the Projects window for each of the module projects that need to use these features and select /Add Module Dependency.../ In the field at the top of the dialog, type in "TemplateRegistration" and the list will filter down to only show the /File Templates/ module. Likewise, type in "NbBundle" or "NbBundle.Messages" and the list will filter down to /Base Utilities API/. Add each of those to your module and recompile. You should be fine then.Also, it helps if, when you are asking for help, you include which version of NetBeans, which version of the JDK, and what build system you are using.-SC On 2/21/23 10:52 PM, Rick Tee wrote:Hi,I followed the template tutorial: https://netbeans.apache.org/tutorials/nbm-filetemplates.htmlWhen I choose run i get:warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.7 warning: No processor claimed any of these annotations: TemplateRegistration,Messages /home/rick/Projects/AdditionalFileTemplates/src/org/myorg/additionalfiletemplates/package-info.java:15: error: package org.netbeans.api.templates does not existimport org.netbeans.api.templates.TemplateRegistration;/home/rick/Projects/AdditionalFileTemplates/src/org/myorg/additionalfiletemplates/package-info.java:16: error: package org.openide.util.NbBundle does not existimport org.openide.util.NbBundle.Messages;/home/rick/Projects/AdditionalFileTemplates/src/org/myorg/additionalfiletemplates/package-info.java:5: error: cannot find symbol@TemplateRegistration( symbol: class TemplateRegistration/home/rick/Projects/AdditionalFileTemplates/src/org/myorg/additionalfiletemplates/package-info.java:12: error: cannot find symbol@Messages(value = "HTMLtemplate_displayName=Empty HTML file") symbol: class Messages 4 errors 1 warning/usr/lib/apache-netbeans/harness/common.xml:207: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.BUILD FAILED (total time: 1 second)
