Using Netbeans for MV3500 Homework Assignments

To submit homework via Netbeans to the gitlab server you will first need to clone a copy of the course repository at

• https://gitlab.nps.edu/Savage/NetworkedGraphicsMV3500

Use Netbeans to upload/update your homework assignments as follows:

1. context menu: Git > Remote > Pull from Upstream to first always ensure you update your repository
2. Save into your local directory for projects/Assignments/homework1 (as appropriate)
3. Select file of interest in Netbeans tab for Files
4. context menu: Refactor/Rename and take spaces out of file name (gets wacky on various operating systems, email etc.)
5. Ensure Java classes and source files start with your last name
6. context menu: Run file(s) to test
7. context menu: Git > commit; provide comment documenting the change
8. Verify that the entry in Files tab goes from green to black, indicating you have committed to your local repository.
9. context menu: Git > Remote > Push to Upstream

You can now verify that your files are been shared by checking the website:
