How to make executable program in java? [duplicate]

Answer 1

The common way is the following:

1. compile your class files: javac *.class
2. create a jar file (it's basically a .zip-file):
   • echo Main-Class: MyMainClassName > manifest.txt
   • jar cvfm MyOwnJarfile.jar manifest.txt *.class
3. create a .bat-script (or sh script if your are on unix):
   • echo java -jar MyOwnJarfile.jar > start.bat
4. Double-Click on start.bat ;-)
