Error in generating CAP File

Question

I unzipped the java card kit to C:\java_card_kit-2_2_1
Then created a java card applet with
applet AID A00000006203010C06 and
package AID as A00000000000000000
with java card kit path as
JAVA CARD API LOCATION C:\java_card_kit-2_2_1\lib\api.jar
JAVA CARD ECPORT FILES C:\java_card_kit-2_2_1\api_export_files
converter location C:\java_card_kit-2_2_1\lib\converter.jar
jcwde simulator location C:\java_card_kit-2_2_1\bin\jcwde.bat
While running this command in command prompt
command in command prompt :
java -jar "C:\java_card_kit-2_2_1\lib\converter.jar" -classdir "C:\WORKFOLDER RANJITH JAVA CARD\UPDATED JAVA CARD CODE\AppletToBeLoadedInCard\build\classes" -exportpath "C:\java_card_kit-2_2_1\api_export_files" -applet 0xA0:0x00:0x00:0x00:0x62:0x03:0x01:0x0C:0x06 javacardapplet1.JavaCardApplet1 -d "C:\WORKFOLDER RANJITH JAVA CARD\UPDATED JAVA CARD CODE\AppletToBeLoadedInCard\javacard_dist" -out CAP EXP javacardapplet1 0xA0:0x00:0x00:0x00:0x00:0x00:0x00:0x00:0x00 1.0
I get error as
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from c:\java_card_kit-2_2_1\lib\converter.jar
What is the issue here and how to ivercome this..

Hi CulbOy,
You might have more luck running the batch files found at JC_HOME/bin (more specifically converter.bat)
here is a batch file I use to convert applets with JC 2.2.1 (file is run from the project root directory)
@echo off
if "%OS%" == "Windows_NT" setlocal
if not "%JC_HOME%" == "" goto doit
    echo Please set the JC_HOME environment variable.
    goto end
:doit
%JC_HOME%\bin\converter.bat -config src/main/resources/applet.opt
:end
if "%OS%" == "Windows_NT" endlocaland a sample applet.opt:
<PACKAGAE_NAME> <PACKAGE_AID> 1.0
-applet <APPLET_AID> <APPLET_CLASS_NAME>
-classdir target/classes
-d target/javacard
-out CAP EXP JCA
-debugI hope this helps.
Cheers,
Shane
