* Checkout the sources and build the dev distribution/target platform once
via "ant" at commandline

* Open the module from the sources in your NB installation f.e. 8.1
* Make your changes to the code
* Right click on the module and choose Run or Debug
-> the previously build distribution is started with your altered/patched
module

FYI: "Install/Reload in Development IDE" installs the module in the current
NB instance. It is not installed in the target platform.

With kind regards, markiewb
