You can download and install the Echo templates module for NetBeans which will make Echo Project templates available in NetBeans. To install, you will need to add the server to the module update list which will also allow NetBeans to automatically update your modules when there is a new version. 1. Go to Tools -> Plugins 2. Select the Settings tab 3. Click the Add button to add a new provider 4. Add a name for the provider for example "Emblem Modules" 5. Use this URL `https://www.emblem.net.au/nb/updates.xml` or `http://insecure.emblem.net.au/nb/updates.xml` if you receive errors - see warning below. 6. Click Ok. 7. The module Echo Templates should now be available in the Available plugin tab. Select the module and click install. 8. You will need to accept the licence agreement and continue following the unsigned message if there is one (the first version of the module was not signed and did not have a licence file). 9. You should be able to create a new project and find Echo Application under C/C++. WARNING: You may experience issues with NetBeans failing to connect to the server and reporting `handshake_failure`. This is a result of Java only supporting 128bit encryption by default whereas our servers use 256bit encryption.

I confirmed that I was installing the JCE correctly by removing the original policy files which caused NetBeans to fail to initialise the plugin update checks. In the end the easiest work around is to use a non encrypted connection. I have configured the server to allow limited access via `http://insecure.emblem.net.au` so you can use `http://insecure.emblem.net.au/nb/updates.xml` instead. I prefer not to use insecure connections when possible. NOTE: Make sure your environment is correctly set up. The best way to do this is to setup Echo using {rEI}.
