So yesterday I had my last final. This morning I started working on this stuff again, and apparently, it's not so complicated.

I used API Monitor to look at the CreateProcessA/CreateProcessW calls Netbeans was making. The maximum captured string size isn't big enough, so you'll have to write another program to read whatever's being printed (or replace the executable with one that just prints out the arguments). I've copy and pasted one at the bottom of this post. It's in C++.

But anyways, the command line arguments for building a project were as follows:
$JAVA_PATH
$JAVAC_PATH
$NB_PROJ_DIR
$NB_PROJ_NAME
$WPILIBJ_DIR
$SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR
$ENTRYPOINTJAVAFILE_PATH

If you plan to run any of these commands, ensure your current directory is set to $NB_PROJ_DIR, or the last 2 steps fail.
These calls will probably change whenever "FRC Java" is updated. I didn't include anything on the process of verification... I'm going to look for that stuff now, and update this post accordingly. I'm not sure how badly you can brick the cRIO by screwing up here - I'd advise for people to leave the job of replacing jvm and squawk.out files to Netbeans, which is actually well tested.

Delete $NB_PROJ_DIR\build
Delete $NB_PROJ_DIR\suite
Delete $NB_PROJ_DIR\j2meclasses

Create $NB_PROJ_DIR\build
Create $NB_PROJ_DIR\suite
Create $NB_PROJ_DIR\j2meclasses

$JAVAC_PATH -d "$NB_PROJ_DIR\build" -classpath "$NB_PROJ_DIR\build;$WPILIBJ_DIR\src" -target 1.2 -bootclasspath $SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR\lib\squawk_device.jar -g -source 1.3 $ENTRYPOINTJAVAFILE_PATH

This just compiles your project and outputs stuff to $NB_PROJ_DIR\build

$SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR\bin\preverify -d j2meclasses -classpath $SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR/lib/squawk_device.jar;$SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR/lib/WPILibJ/src;;;j2meclasses build

This just compiles your project and outputs stuff to $NB_PROJ_DIR\j2meclasses
I actually have no clue what this does - I'm a C# person, and I sort of don't know the internals of Java, much.

$JAVA_PATH -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,com/sun/squawk/Method.getParameterTypes -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,com/sun/squawk/SymbolParser.getSignatureTypeAt -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,com/sun/squawk/SymbolParser.stripMethods -Xmx256M -classpath $SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR\bin\romizer_classes.jar;$SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR\bin\squawk.jar;$SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR\bin\squawk_device_classes.jar;$SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR\bin\translator_classes.jar com.sun.squawk.Romizer -nobuildproperties -nobuildproperties -suitepath:$SUNSPOTFRCSDK_DIR/cRIO -boot:squawk -metadata -lnt -strip:d -cp:suite\$NB_PROJ_NAME_1.0.0.jar -endian:big -o:image "$NB_PROJ_DIR\suite\$NB_PROJ_NAME_1.0.0.jar"

This "ROMizes" your project. I'd assume that means doing whatever precompilations they do (so that you don't have to JIT and cache everything when your robot starts up?)

Netbeans connects to the robot through FTP.
The authentication is anonymous ("USER .." "PASS ..")

RETR /FRC_ImageVersion.ini

Probably to verify the image version of the crio, or some frc firmware.

RETR /ni-rt/system/FRC_JavaVM.out

Probably verifies JVM that is on robot

RETR /ni-rt/system/squawk.out

Probably verifies the compiled squawk vm. No clue what the difference is between this and javavm.

RETR /ni-rt/system/squawk.suite

This has something that is also "ROMified". Squawk's the name of the JVM.
Pretty sure this is just another verification step

STOR /ni-rt/system/robot.suite

$NB_PROJ_DIR/suite/image.suite is uploaded replacing /ni-rt/system/robot.suite

NB then connects to the robot and sends something (i forget the exact string) like "!RUN!", which, I assume, restarts the robot?

The following program was injected into Netbeans to capture whatever CreateProcessA's parameters were.
You'll have to use Microsoft Detours http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/detours/
The program was compiled with Visual Studio 11.
