Netbeans build.xml file

 Below is a couple of additions I've made in the past to the build.xml files:

1). The below is one example of some file operations after deployment:

<target name="-post-deploy" depends="-post-jar">

        <!-- Add your post JAR operations here -->

        <echo message="Moving Autoexec.jar from lib to dist"/>

        <!-- Example: Copy the JAR file to a different directory -->

        <move file="dist/lib/Autoexec.jar" todir="dist/"/>

</target>

2). The below builds the javadoc into a jar file and also combines the Utilities-javadoc.jar and Utilities.jar files into a zip file Utilities-and-javadoc.jar.

<target name="-post-jar" description="bundle sources and javadoc in a jar" depends="javadoc">

    <jar compress="${jar.compress}" basedir="${dist.javadoc.dir}" jarfile="${dist.dir}/${application.title}-javadoc.jar"/>    

    <!-- Combine the javadoc JAR and Utilities JAR -->

    <zip destfile="${dist.dir}/${application.title}-and-javadoc.zip">

        <fileset dir="${dist.dir}" includes="${application.title}-javadoc.jar" />

        <fileset dir="${dist.dir}" includes="${application.title}.jar" />

    </zip>

</target>

In both cases above, the -post-deploy and -post-jar refers to the placeholder sections in the nbproject/build-impl.xml file.
