Merging Multiple Jars in to a Single Jar

Question

my application needs multiple jars to work. Since it is a desktop application i can not hold the user responsible of installing. So in my build script i unzip the jars conte

Answer 1

One-JAR will do the job, and has a new release (0.97) which supports frameworks like Spring and Guice, which users are now packing into One-JAR archives. http://one-jar.sourceforge.net

Ference Hechler also did some great work inside Eclipse with the Eclipse export wizard: we worked together on FatJar/One-JAR from which the Eclipse work grew, and I can recommend that as an approach, though I don't know how well it handles the frameworks.
