How to add NetBeans update center to my NetBeans application updater

Maybe adding somethink like that in your layer.xml. I don't know if we can do the same with an annotation...


Code:
<folder name="Services">
    <folder name="AutoupdateType">
        <file name="your_compagny_update_center.instance">
            <attr name="displayName" stringvalue="Netbeans 8.0.2 Update Center"/>
            <attr name="url" stringvalue="http://updates.netbeans.org/netbeans/updates/8.0.2/uc/final/certified/catalog.xml.gz"/>
            <attr name="enabled" boolvalue="true"/>
            <attr name="instanceCreate" methodvalue="org.netbeans.modules.autoupdate.updateprovider.AutoupdateCatalogFactory.createUpdateProvider"/>
            <attr name="instanceOf" stringvalue="org.netbeans.spi.autoupdate.UpdateProvider"/>
        </file>
    </folder>
</folder>

I have noticed that I’ve received updates to my NetBeans IDE from the NetBeans update center (such as git) but these updates are not appearing in my deployed NetBeans app.

I see general discussion about adding multiple update center descriptions but not specifics about how to point to the NetBeans site.
