What is the point of Self-signed checkbox in WebStart properties in Netbeans

In Netbeans (I have version 6.5) in the project properties under Application> Webstart there is a self-completion checkbox.

What is its meaning? When do I need to use it?

Probably for web start security. If you look at this page , you can see that web launcher apps run in a sandbox if they are not signed. You can create a self-signed certificate instead of a verified one, for example from Verisign or Thawte.



Self-recording is fine if you are testing, but if you are deploying something for production for general use, I would recommend getting the appropriate certificate.
