Make Installer for Netbeans (JAVA) Project

I did not find a suitable answer to the question. How to make an installer for my Netbeans project (JAVA)? Although enough questions, but not the right answers. Please someone give an answer. I use JDK 1.6, Netbeans 1.7.1, if Netbeans does not care about the task, any separate installer that can create .exe / .msi, .jar files (and maybe more or not more) so that my project can be distributed in Windows / Linux / Mac etc. Thanks in advance.

Update: I used the SQLite database in my project, maybe the application does not start when I run the .jar file. Therefore, any Netbeans plugin will be appreciated.

Installing the application means that you have a set of installation screens that ask for data from the user, such as the installation location, the specific configuration of the project, etc., and then after entering the data, you create the installation directory and copy the set of files there and run some code to configure your application.

Now this is what you need to do, then there are several open source installation developers who do the job. One of my favorites is InstallJammer. Functionally, it is similar to Installshield (a well-known commercial builder) and supports most of its functions.

It supports all the functions necessary to create an installer. In addition, it supports most of the flavors and windows of unix / linux.
