An icon to run Java Application

Can you please tell me any way to run a Java Application by simply clicking on an icon in the Windows environment? This means i can run the application easily in Windows instead of the usual "
java ApplicationName" command in DOS. If it's possible, how can i create such icon?

hi again,
as dewangs as pointed out, yes you can create a Jar file too, for creating that, you first need to create a Manifest file generally with name manifest.mf the contents of the file will be in the following format.
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: 1.4.0-beta3
Main-Class: Filename
the important part is the Main-Class, you must replace the FileName with the name of the class file which has the main method.
after that use the jar command, for eg
jar cvfm myprog.jar manifest.mf -C build/ .
this will create a jar file with name myprog.jar (it will include all files under the build directory).
you can then repeat the steps of creating a shortcut for the jar file using the steps i earlier mentioned for a batch file.
(you will require to choose "all files" instead of "programs" in the "Create shortcut" -> Browse file chooser dialog.)
hope this was useful.

  • Double click on icon to run java application

    Hello,
    I want to write a code in java so that if i double click on icon the program will start showing the window as it appears when we double click acrobat and the we get the main screen. How this can be achieved?
    Thank you

    The OP should first learn to develop GUIs and only
    then should you think of developing double-clickable
    jar files. hey, OP asked a question; what's wrong with answering it? And who are you to decide whether s/he is ready to learn about jars?
    That said, double clickable jars and
    everything you need to know about running you Java
    program by clicking on something is well discussed in
    the
    Jar
    thread.Yes, but why pass the buck to them if you can answer it just fine yourself?
    OK so I'm being a bit aggro, the forums are moving really slowly.

  • How do i run java application on IIS

    Hi,
    Can I run java application on IIS(Internet information Server)?
    If yes, How do i do that?
    My java application contains JSP,Servlets and EJB.
    To run java application on IIS which plug in should i use.
    Can anybody help me This is urgent...........
    Thanx

    You can try using Macromedia JRUN version 4. Any of the version will have an ISAPI filter which you can add to the IIS site of your JSP/Servlet.
    The JRUN ISAPI filter will establish connection to the JRUN proxy listener on a port. This port is called proxy listener port. Basically once you install the ISAPI, it will have config file called jrun.ini
    Check for the ProxyPort entry in jrun.ini (or something like this - sorry, I can't remember the exact entry). It should match to the proxy listener port where of the server where your JSP/Servlet is intalled.
    Good luck !

    Hi
    Check this article on JGuru. It explains how to use Tomcat together with IIS.
    http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=776546
    If you also need to use EJB's you probably also want to have a JBoss installed - check www.jboss.org

    Can i use EJB components in it?Yes, you can use EJB components. IIS uses Tomcat as a plugin and Tomcats feeds IIS with HTML code. Tomcat performes all the JAVA work including EJB. This links shows you how to install it:
    http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-iis-howto.html
    Shoud be the same for version 4.1

  • Error while running Java Application as NT Service using INSTSRV

    Hi,
    I am trying to run Java Application as an NT Service using Instsrv.But when i start the service It works fine.when i stop the service it does not stop and it continues to run the application.When i uninstall the service It still executes.When i reboot my machine it stops .Is there any solutions for this.Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I actually had similar situation. I used autoexnt.ext tool (it creats a service that can be called when rebooting) to start a batch file which in turn run a java program. After the program starts, it can only be stopped through Task Manager or Ctrl-C at the dos window (it creats a dos window) or close the window directly. Stopping the service has nothing to do with the program. I feel this is reasonable because the only function of the service here is to start the application. After that the service does not (very likely) have any connection with the program so whatever you do with the service will not affect the program itself. I wonnder if you are in the same situation.

  • Run java application on mainframes

    i have a financial application which needs to run java application on mainframes. Any ideas how i may do it. where do i get the jvm for the various OS. !

    Thank you all for the reply. I have noted regarding jvm for OS390. Trouble is we have > 30 banks where this application has to be installed and run and these are very old systems like nsk and ve. so this would mean we need to have the jvm for all the different OS running. i would collect more info on the various OS before deciding if it can be done in java.

  • How connect an HTML page to a running Java Application?

    Hi,
    Exists a way to connect an HTML page to a running Java Application?
    the idea is, If we use SWT, the Browser widget have an instance of IE/Firefox attached to it, and we load local HTML pages inside, then i wish to have a way to bridge Java Application from HTML page. Then with that we can do follow JScript:
    var javaApp = document.getJavaApplication(); //here is the trick
    //below is like we do today with applets
    var person = container.create("myapp.Person");
    person.setName("Test");
    container.save(person);its great if we can Have an attribute for object tag or anything to conect HTML page to Java Application.

    I think that the better idea is to create a new mime type for that, maybe "application/x-java-connect-to-local-jvm", and use embed tag, to connect via plugin to a running JavaApp
    example:
    <embed type="application/x-java-connect-to-local-jvm" width="20" height="20" mainClass="mypackage.AppName"><br>
    <script>
    var javaApp = document.embeds[0];
    function createPerson()
      var person = javaApp.getNew("mypackage.Person");
      person.setName("test");
      javaApp.save(person);
    }The width and height, isnt necessary, but the view can be used to show red if connection failed and green for sucessfull connections, or maybe embed tag can have src to images for sucessfull and unsucessfull states.
    That's the idea, there is a way to extend Java Plugin to achieve that?
    any tip or idea or to achieve that, are welcome.
    Thanks

  • How to run java application without having java environment in  a machine

    can i run java application without having java environment(JVM) in a machine.I mean i dont have installed j2se or jdk in my machine.And i have an j2ee application running on another host which is built in swings.I want to access that application in my machine
    can any one help regarding my problem

    If you only need to access the program from one machine and you are running a Unix-like operating system (e.g., Linux, Solaris), you can use the remote display capabilities of X11. In this case you have to choose the host where the app will be displayed when you start it:
    $ DISPLAY=<hostname>:0.0
    $ export DISPLAY
    $ java ...
    If you want to be able to display it on both machines at the same time, or if you are using windows, then try something like VNC (http;//www.realvnc.com). Or if you are running windows and your version supports it, you can use windows remote desktop.

    What error indications do you get? You have to enable error logging in the Java Control Panel to see the details.

    Can you elaborate on the steps to create a java
    application without installing JRE.
    Regards,
    padmaPadma,
    The solution is to deploy my JAR together with JRE files, without running standard JRE installation. This makes possible to simply ensure that my JAR will run with THIS SPECIFIC JRE. This is important from QA point of view. Also, installation of my application does not change configuration of JVMs on the computer.
    The solved problem:
    Standard JRE installation may change the default JRE for many Java applets and application on computer. Changing version JRE may lead to some programs misbehaviour (JRE backward compatibility does not always work and different Java versions not always live together well). Thus, some IT departments are very nervous about JRE version change.
    Hope, this explains my problem and the solution.

    Hi,
    At first you have to create an exe of the class file.
    for that go to the site www.duckware.com/java2exe.html
    Click on the j2exe23c.exe(75k) download it and install in ur system. convert the class file to windows exe.
    The put the exe in the startup folder in windows.
    If ur not able to find that folder search for it and put that exe in that folder.
