Creating an exe file for java

Hi all,
any way to create the exe file using JBuilder 3?
if possible how to do that?
how about creating installation file for the application?
thanks alot

I think you might need a byte code compiler that converts the .class files to .exe
I believe there are some products out there that do this. I don't think there is a java utility that performs this type of operation.

How to create the exe files for java application

How to create the exe file for java application?
got any software to do that?
Thanks

In terms of converting java applications into exe files, there are 3 schools of thought:
1) Instead of converting it to an exe, convert it to a jar file. Jar files are more portable than exe files because they can be double-clicked on any operating system. The caveat is that a Java interpreter must be installed on the target computer for the double-clicking to work.
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/Books/javaprogramming/JAR/
2) Create an exe launcher that, when double-clicked, attempts to find a Java interpreter on the local computer and launches the Java application. The exe file is still double-clickable but whether your java application runs depends on whether a Java interpretor is installed on the target computer.

3) Create an exe launcher that bundles a Java interpretor. Same as above but when the exe file is double-clicked, it searches for a Java interpreter and if one is not found, it installs one on the target computer. The caveat is that the exe file would have an overhead of 10 MB in size for the interpreter.

4) Convert the Java application into a native exe file. The caveat is that if you use Swing for your GUI, it won't be converted. Also this option is still somewhat experimental.
Can't think of any free options right now.

Want to create and exe file for .java files

Hello all :)
I am making a multi-threaded console application.
It also takes command line parameters from user.
I want to create .exe files out of .java files.
Note:- One class contains main method (in default package) and all other classes are in some specific package
I want to create an exe for the whole application.
The solutions which i get on net is exe4j but i was unable to use it.
Please suggest me to create an windows executable file out of java files.
Thanx in advance

by definition, if you double click on the .exe , you won't pass it parameters
you have to launch a shell, reach the directory where the .exe (or .jar) is stored, and launch the exe directly with parameters, e.g:
myApplication.exe -u user -p password
you can't double click on the exe and say "ok, i give you -u -p!" ; everything has to be done simultaneously if your app is using the "String [] args" arguments of main
if you want to specify parameters after launching the app, you have to grab user input in your main

How to create a .exe file for a java application

Hi, I want to create a .exe file for a java application I am developing so that I can schedule it to run at a particular time using Windows Scheduler on WinNT. Is there any way to accomplish this? Or is there any other way in which a Java application can be scheduled to run at a particular time on Windows everyday?

Create a .bat file and run that. Just have, in the .bat file:
java YourClassName Alternatively, you can use javaw YourClassName (without *.bat, just put it into Windows Scheduler like suggested above).
using javaw won't pop up any window...

HOw to create a Batch file for java application and whats the use of this ?

HI,
How to create a Batch file for java application ?
And whats the use of creating batch file ?
Thanks in advance

First of all, you're OT.
Second, you can find this everywhere in the net.
If you got a manifest declaring main class (an classpath if needed), just create a file named whatever.bat, within same directory of jar file, containing:
javaw -jar ./WhateverTheNameOfYourJarIs.jar %*By the way, assuming a Windows OS, you can just double click the jar file (no batch is needed).
Otherwise use:
javaw -cp listOfJarsAndDirectoriesSeparedBySemiColon country/company/application/package/className %*Where 'country/company/application/package/' just stands for a package path using '/' as separator instead of '.'
Don't specify the .class extension.
Javaw only works on Windows (you asked for batch, I assumed .BAT, no .sh), in Linux please use java.exe (path may be needed, Windows doesn't need it 'cause java's executables are copied to system32 folder in order to be always available, see PATH environment variable if you don't know what I'm talking about) and use ':' as classpath (cp) separator.
The '%***' tail is there in order to pass all parameters, it only works on Windows, refer to your shell docs for other OSs (something like $* may work).
This way you have a command you can call to launch your code (instead of opening NetBeans just to see your app working). You could schedule tasks on it or just call it in any command prompt (hope you know what it is 'cause there have been people in this very same forum with no clue about it, if not just hold the 'Windows button' and press 'R', then type 'cmd' and run it).
Finally add dukes and give 'hem away.
Bye.

How to create an exe file for single class

Hi all,
l have one some program with only one class and want to create one exe file for
easily execute for the user.
I've use exe4j and another tool to do but all failure, the error message always shown me that main class not found.
Any idea??
Thanks a lot!

I suspect your class has somewhat invalid thing.
Have you verified:
- The class you wish to be executed contains public static void main(String args[])- The package declaration on your executable-wannabe class is valid
- In case you need to import another class, make sure the import statement(s) is valid
No matter what kinda program you use to create .exe from java class, the above things must be valid. AFAIK.

How to create search index files for Java Pet Store

Hi All,
As you may know, the java pet store application uses for the search function a search index object, which itself uses the following files '_36.cfs', 'deletable', 'segments'.
Now as I want to change the data of the database (delete some pets, and names, etc.), it does not have an effect on the search results. This is because the application uses the search index files and does not use the database for the search query.
So can anybody help me and tell me how I can create this three files from my *.sql file, so I can search in my own data?
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards,
Wolfgang

I had the same problem. It seems that the installer does not unzip three files where it should.
With NetBeans (Using File Perspective) or just editing build.xml
Netbeans: select build.xml/Run Target/Other Targets/unzipindexes: Tough it should work it fails in resolving $javaee.domaindir$ at least in my system, but it does suscessfully create a new directory named ${jee.domaindir} that includes lib/petstore/searchindex and three files: _36.cfs , deletable, segments.
Copy those three files to your_glasshfish_path/domains/domain1/petstore/searchindex.
Now you are done. I hope that you had a nice time while waiting two years for it to be answered. How is it that it is not answered anywhere else?

www.sciencetechworks.comThanks. I didn't wait 2 years for this, but I just replied on a 2 year old post. I only recently tried the petstore app. I thought I needed to study lucene first to figure things out, it turns out there was an 'internal target' on the build file for this. Thanks a bunch!

Creation of a .exe file for a Java program

hi, myself is venu.
Can anyone help in creating a .exe file for a generated .class file.
Thanking you in advance.

Hello,
There is a tool that you can download called JavaExe. It will make an executable of your java class. The class must have a main method. Just google for it and follow the instructions. I have tried it, it does work well.
