Creating a icon for a program

Question

Basically as the name says, i use a program called READY TO PROGRAM with java 1.7 and i just wanna know how can i make the program with an icon so i just click the icon and it runs???

Answer 1

me thinks we both misunderstood the q? Enc
your application, ready to program creates the .java file when you type in the code
the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) creates the .class file at compile time
the .class file contains bytecode
as Enc said jar stuff is to advanced for your level, so
on your PC somewhere there is a file called java.exe
you run this application (java.exe) from within the command promt
suggest you read up on installing Java, because you will have to set up class paths
when you have done that
in windows environment to access command promt
Start--->Run---> type command and hit enter
if your classpaths are set up properly, you can navigate around directories in the command prompt
and run your class files inside command promt from any directory
I did cheat a little and wrote a small peice of code (batch) that sets up classpaths for
javac.exe
java.exe
junit4.4
that only runs from a shortcut to command prompt on the desktop
I also have some cheat batch files so if in command prompt
jc runs javac.exe
jr runs java.exe
av runs appletviewer.exe
