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 exe file from a Java application

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

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.

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 a batch file for a java program?

I have a java project in JCreator and the project is organised into packages. I have also configured JCreator to provide 2 arguments to the main method when the project is executed.
I would want to create a batch file (.bat) for this project where the batch file can automatically use the arguments set in JCreator when the program runs.
How do I go about creating the batch file?

where the batch file can automatically use the arguments set in JCreatorThat all depends JCreator... can you get those arguments somehow?

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 different log files for each of web applications deployed in OC4J

Hi All,
I am using OC4J(from Oracle) v1.0.2.2 and Windows2000. Now I want to know
1. how to create different log files for each of my deployed web applications ?
2. what are the advantages in running multiple instances of oc4j and in what case we should run
multiple instances of OC4J ?
3. how to run OC4J as Windows2000 Service rather than Windows2000 Application ?
Thanks and Regards,
Kumar.

Hi Avi,
First of all I have given a first reading to log4j and I think there will some more easy way of logging debugging messages than log4j (If you could provide me a detailed explanation of a servlet,jsp,java bean that uses log4j and how to use log4j then it will be very helpful for me). The other easy ways (if I am not using log4j) to my problem i.e creating different log files for each of web applications deployed in oc4j are
I have created multiple instances of OC4J that are configured to run on different ports and so on each instance I have deployed a single web application . And I started the 2 oc4j instances by transferring thier error/log messages to a file. And the other way is ..
I have download from jakarta site a package called servhelper . This servhelper is a thread that is started in a startup servlet and stopped in the destroy method of that startup servlet. So this thread will automatically capture all the system.out.println's and will print those to a file. I believe that this thread program is synchronized. So in this method I need not run multiple instances of OC4J instead each deployed web application on single instance of oc4j uses the same thread program (ofcourse a copy of thread program is put in each of the deployed web applications directories) to log messages on to different log files.
Can you comment on my above 2 approached to logging debugging messages and a compartive explanation to LOG4J and how to use LOG4J using a simple servlet, simple jsp is appreciated ...
Thanks and Regards,
Ravi.

How to create a password file for executing psadmin command to deploy portl

how to create a password file for executing psadmin command to deploy portlet

What you have done is perfectly right. The password file doesn't have anything else apart from the password
for example in your case
$echo password > /tmp/password.txt
However I remember that in windows install, the Application server used to wait for a user's input when a deploy was to be done for the first time. So Can you read the Release notes or the Readme file which has come with windows.
The solution was,
manually use asadmin command of application server to deploy some war (any webapp will do), at this time, a question will be prompted to accept a certificate. once this is done, deploy portlet should work fine!!!

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.

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 smaller .exe file use JBuilder7

I am currently using JB7(EE), which can create native executable file for me. But I found it so foolish that add so many unneed classes to .exe(As I can use WinRar open it, but cannot change it).
Does anyone know how to reduce the .exe?
ps: As I use castor, so I had to include castor class in it, but I really don't want to add all of these to it.

In the Wizar you employ to make the native executable,
in the second step the Wizard ask you what to do with
the libraries you have employed in the proyect,
include all them include only the classes and
resources nedded, or not include. This way you'll be
able to control what is in you .exe file.
AbrahamYes, I had tried it, and tried every possible combination/permutation of the four choice.
But still bigger than it can be.
For example: I used castor.xml library, but JBuilder include all castor include xml parser, html parser, xhtml parser, etc.
As castor.xml --> castor.xxx(I cannot remember its name) --> castor.html-->...
So JB7 maybe confused by the complex deps.
So JB7 include ALL in my exe fiel.
It may be impossible to create smaller .exe file with normal way.
So anyone know any other way to create .exe file with the .jar file?
As I can change the content of .jar, but cannot to .exe.
thx for continous reply
