Possible Duplicate: How can I convert my java program to an .exe file ? I'm trying to export a program written in Java 6 to a JAR file. My project contains one Java library from the Internet and some Java source files. When I create the JAR file, the classpath should be set by default and the end-user should be able to run the project directly from either the command prompt or some other source. My goal is to export everything to a JAR file, if that's possible. Also, the program output should be given at the command prompt. How can I export my program in this way? You need to write a META-INF

I've been trying to convert a jar to exe. The program - the jar - uses a bluetooth library 'Bluecove' which is another jar in some directory. The program also uses Java Swing, typically JFrame and stuff. The program works perfectly when run from within Netbeans or Eclipse. It's time for me to deploy it, hence I need to convert it to exe. But I've been unable get the final executable to link with 'Bluecove'. I tried JSmooth and Launch4j , but with both, though I could complete the process and create the 'exe', the final program isn't running, because it can't find the Bluecove classes. Any

I created a java application that is a front end for a MySQL Database using NetBeans and JDBC. Now after creating the jar file it runs smoothly on my computer (Since I have the MySQL installed) but, if I run the jar on a different computer it won't work since it does not have the DB the application is using and not even MySQL installed. So the question is, is it possible to add the database to the executable jar so it will run on any computer without the need for any installation of any software (Except for JRE of course) ? If yes, how do I go about doing so? Thanks everyone for the help in

Hello Stack Overflow friends. I have a simple problem which i fear doesnt have a simple solution and i need advice as to how to proceed. I am developing a java application packaged as and executable JAR but it requires to modify some of its JAR file contents during execution. At this stage i hit a problem because some OS lock the file preventing writes to it. It is essential that the user sees an updated version of the jar file by the time the application exits allthough i can be pretty flexible as to how to achieve this. A clean and efficient solution is obviously prefereable but portability
