<p><b>Notes:</b></p>
<ul>
<li>Do not use compiler options like <code dir="ltr">-bootclasspath</code> to cross-compile between Java platforms. Instead, register the target Java platform and set the target JDK for the project.</li>
<li>You can manage the project's classpath by clicking Libraries in the left panel of the dialog box. You can set up file filters for JAR file creation by clicking <b>Packaging</b>.</li>
