Java packaging tools - alternatives for jsmooth, launch4j, onejar

Question

I have used these three open source tools for packaging my java apps, but they all look like abandon-ware now. All three are very good pieces of software. What are the optio

Answer 1

As I was fed up with recent security changes in Java Webstart, I created my own tool, JNDT. It's under GPL.

It goes farther than akauppi's suggestion because it allows to create GNU Linux packages even under Mac and Windows :) I use it to create Mac bundle under GNU Linux too. For the moment, it's just a single Ant library with a few dependencies that allows to create native self-contained application bundles for GNU Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. I use it for my first person shooter and I'm very happy with it. It bundles the JRE but it can use the system JRE if you want.

P.S: JNDT is able to create a native Windows installer as an executable with NSIS even under GNU Linux.

I understand that the GPL license discourages some developers to use my tool. In this case, rather use PackR.
