DevFaqSourceTreeModuleDescriptions
There sure are a lot of modules in the source tree. What are they for?
If you've unpacked or checked out the NetBeans sources, you'll see more then 600 directories. Almost every one of these directories is a module. Although the directory names indicate the purpose of each, sometimes it's still not clear what each does.
The easiest way to find out about a module in the source tree is to open its manifest file, then look for the entry named OpenIDE-Module-Localizing-Bundle. The file referenced there (located deeper inside the module directory) typically contains the module's display name, descriptions and other information. You could automate the extraction of these values through a simple shell or perl script, but for your convenience, I've included the short description of each one below:
