Build a .jar from an applet

Question

Hi. I have the following code.
import controller.Application;
import model.Slideshow;
import view.MainFrame;
import java.applet.Applet;
public class Main extends Applet {
    public void init() {
        Slideshow slideshow = new Slideshow("untitled.xml");
        Application app = new Application(slideshow);
        new MainFrame(app);
}I can create the .jar file but when I open it a message of "couldn't finde main class" appears... obviously... it's an applet ! how can I create an excecutable file? thanks very much

how can I make an executable file with this class????
This question is quite different from your original question. Is it your intent to convert the application into an applet or are you interested in creating an [executable JAR file|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jar/jarGuide.html]? If it's the latter, when bundling your application in a JAR file you'll need to update the [JAR file manifest|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jar/jar.html] with a Main-Class entry. If it's the former, the following link will be helpful:
