Is it possible to use Jackpot outside of NetBeans, without NetBeans projects?

Question

I know there is a Jackpot API http://jackpot.netbeans.org/docs/org-netbeans-modules-jackpot/overview-summary.html for programmatic access the the rules engine, has anyone had success seperating this from NetBeans itself? So it can operate on any Java source files?

Answer 1

Answering my own question, but the answer, sadly, is no.

Answer 2

Technically there is nothing to stop you grabbing out the jar files and calling it directly. You just might need to bring a lot of netbeans with it.
