Creating a custom INTViewer application

You can create your own version of INTViewer, with your own installer. In this custom version of INTViewer, you can disable the built-in plugins you don't use and brand the application to your own graphical chart.

Verify your registered platform

For this first step, verify that you registered the INTViewer platform.

Create a new NetBeans Platform Application

  • Select File -> New Project
  • Select NetBeans Modules and then NetBeans Platform Application
  • Click Next
  • Enter a Project Name and a Project Location
  • Click Finish

Open the Project Properties

  • Right-click on the project name in the Projects window
  • Select Properties
  • Select the Libraries node in the Categories section
  • Open the intviewer node in the Platform Modules section

Select the modules you want to include

  • If you are only interested in the 2D seismic visualizations, check only Seismic2D
  • Click the Resolve button to include all required modules
  • Click OK

If you launch the application, you will see a simplified INTViewer desktop, such as the one below:

Adding your own plugins

You can elect to add your own plugins using the Add New contextual menu.

Brand your application

  • Right-click on the project name in the Projects window
  • Select Branding

You can enter the icons and splash screen images of your choice.

  • Click OK

Create an installer

  • Right-click on the project name in the Projects window
  • Select Properties
  • Select Installer in the Categories section
  • Check the installers you want to create
  • Right-click on the project name in the Projects window
  • Select Build Installers

NetBeans will create installation files automatically. The location is specified in the build window.

Running the installer

On Windows, an .exe file is created. Double-click this executable to launch the installation.

Follow the wizard until completion.

When the installation is complete, users should uncheck the box Launch MyCustomViewer after the installer closes to avoid this license message:

The license.dat file should be placed in the installation directory selected by the end-user.
