Sequential installation of application and driver in one installation file? (Electron-Builder, React, TypeScript)

I have an application developed on Electron-React-TypeScript, when creating an installation file, I need to install in it not only my Electron application but also an additional driver, which is in the form of an .exe file and so that it is one exe file.
Also, nsis configuration files have been created to change the installation path.
How can I do that?

MSIX Include Additional Required Files

I have a simple WinForms app that I'm trying to package with MSIX. The app itself requires additional files that when I build the MSIX App Project doesn't copy/include.
Specifically this LIBVLC folder that gets included during the WinForms app build itself.
If I manually copy that folder over into the AppX build folder, everything works. Obviously I'm trying to automate including that folder.
Folder manually copied over in screenshot below:
How can I accomplish this? GitHub minimal repo:

I suspect that this line is your issue : https://github.com/aherrick/MSIXWinFormsLIBVLC/blob/0e717828a16e796a7a27e415cf45d33a50327da9/MSIXWinFormsLIBVLC.AppPackage/MSIXWinFormsLIBVLC.AppPackage.wapproj#L80
The nuget package isn't really well understood by the build tools as those are native files that we collect "before build". It seems to cause issues when a project references a project that references the nuget package, and the usual workaround is to reference the nuget package directly in the topmost project.
Is it possible to reference a nuget package in a .wapproj ?
If it isn't, that's an issue for this repository https://code.videolan.org/videolan/libvlc-nuget/ . Contributions welcome

import / opening existing Codenameone project from Netbeans / Eclipse to IntelliJ does not work

Finally, I thought of moving my project from Eclipse to IDE to IntelliJ. So, I carried out the following steps:
1. Installed Codenameone plugin in IntelliJ.
2. Import existing project to IntelliJ. Now I project structure is as shown in the figure.
Here, CodenameOne-Project is the main project including source folders images and all. The common and barcode-common consists of java classes required for main project(i.e.CodenameOne-Project). So, I am able to import CodenameOne-Project in IntelliJ, and if I add other folder as module by adding dependency and all, it dont look like CodenameOne project anymore. I cant properly import complete project. Any help on this would be very helpful. Thanks
P.S: I want to maintain same project structure.
We don't support importing projects between IDE's as our project structure is IDE agnostic. The IDE won't recognize that and would fail. The right thing to do is create a new project with the same package name/main class name as your existing project then copy your src & res directories on top of the new project and copy codenameone_settings.properties on top of the new project file.

Netbeans JSF - Creating executable JAR file

I'm working at the moment on an JSF Project project. Everything is working fine. Creating .war-file, deploying it.
What I actually want is, to create a executable JAR-file for a single Class. In this Class I have a Main-method that sends an email after executing it.
I the past I have worked with Eclipse. And that was very easy.
Now I am working with Netbeans. I have red a lot of posts with the information to clean and build the project. Next to that checking the .dist folder for the JAR-files.
I have either the .dist folder, or any JAR-files in my Project folder for that correlate file.
How can I easily create that JAR-file in Netbeans?
Assuming you are using a native NetBeans project rather than Maven:
The build artefact of a project is defined by it's project type. A JSB/Web project is always build into a WAR file.
If there is one class in your project that you want to put into a JAR file, the clean solution would be to create a new "Java" project with that class (as your class clearly has no dependencies to your Web Application this should work).
For such a project NetBeans will automatically create a runnable JAR file if you configure the main method.
In your JSF project you can simply include that project as a library. If you enable "Build projects on classpath", the jar will automatically be build when you build the web application.
Another approach would be to customize the Ant script NetBeans uses internally and add a target that builds your executable JAR file from that single class.
Details on how to customize the IDE generated Ant script can be found in the manual:
