If it's the latter then you need to make the jar file including a manifest.
The manifest can be just a txt file with its content to be something like this:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.7.1
Created-By: Somebody
Main-Class: NameOfTheMainClass
Class-Path:
X-COMMENT: Main-Class will be added automatically by buildTo make the jar file including the manifest, use something like this in your command prompt (of course you must have compiled your java file(s) first):
jar cfm test.jar MANIFEST.txt NameOfTheMainClass.classAfter that you'd be able to run your application just by double clicking it.
If you're a NetBeans user, you can build your standalone application by right-clicking your project and then going to properties => run => and choosing a Main class. After that right click on that project and "Clean and Build", locate the jar file in the "dist" folder and double click it =]
Hope it helps,

How can i run a jar file?

hi there
how can i run a far file on my pc. i have installed JRE 1.3.1, and set the classpath to C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.1_02\bin for the user variables, what else do i need to do to run it?

Hi everyone.. i had a funny problem. Microsoft removed from registry and system the vm and i got the problem of java.dll and the registry problem when compiling.
How did i resolve that?
too easy:
1. go to the registry and search the key "JavaSoft"
2. add a Key with the name "Java Runtime Environment"
3. select the new key and add a alfa-numeric Value with the name "CurrentVersion"
4. set the value c:\jdk1.4 //the place of your jdk-version
5. insert a new Key with the name "1.4"
6. go to the new key and add an alfanumeric value with the name "JavaHome" and put the value c:\jdk1.4\jre\lib
do this where you find the key Javasoft (in my registry was twice)
i did it and got no problems

How can I create a jar file

Hello!
How can a create a jar file?
I want to run an application just clicking in a icon.
How can I do this?
Thanks a lot.
K�tia.

Get to the command prompt
change directories to the directory where the main class resides.
Open your text editor and type the following in it:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: NameOfMainClass //Just name without ".class"!!!
Created-By: Your Name Here
Save this file as whatever you want to name it with ".mf" as the extension.
Then go back into the command prompt and type the following:
jar cfm "NameOfJarFile".jar "NameOfManifestFile".mf *.class
(without the quote marks of course)
Hit "Enter"
This will jar it up and make it executable.
If you have any images associated with the program you can add them in the same way as above. Just add *.gif or *.jpg after the *.class portion.
Good luck!

How can i rename a jar file using only java code

i have tried everything i can think of to accomplish this but nothing works.

And the question is how can i rename a jar file using java code? As it says in the title. Read.I would tell you to use the File.renameTo method, but surely that would have been obvious, and you would have tried it already? But maybe you didn't. You were kind of lacking in details in what you tried.
And yes, I am a genius. Just don't confuse "genius" with "mind-reader".

How can i run my .class file with out installing java ?

Hai friends..am new to java , plz help me any one.
I wrote a small program in java lang. i want to run this program in my friend's system , which is doesnt have java language .. How can i run this program in my friends system with out installing java language?
one of my friends told that ,it needs to copy the jvm in to ur directory where the java code is present . How can i copy the jvm from where to where ..?plz help me any one

Your friend will have to install the Java runtime if they want to run Java
programs.
Don't go copying files yourself - and especially don't go copying them to the
location of the Java code. After all, if your friend wants to run 42 different
Java programs they shouldn't have to have 42 copies of the runtime.
Just download and run the installer from this site:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
Be careful to download the "Java Runtime Environment" not the JDK.

How can I create a jar file that will run automatically on double click

all the jars I created run only from the command-line.
how can I make it run by double-click on it?

First you will need to associate .jar files with the javaw.exe program in order to just be able to double click on the jar and run it from within a windows explorer application. Next you will need to set the main class attribute of the manifest file. My understanding is that the value of this attribute is used by the launcher to know which class to load. In other words, which is your main application class. To specify this attribute open your manifest file in a text editor. You will find this file located within the jar at META-INF/MANIFEST.MF. Then, add the line,
"Main-Class:<relative path to the main class>" However, remember not to add the .class extension to the end of the class name.
In Windows 2000 you can associate jar files with javaw by finding a jar file in Windows Explorer and right clicking it. This will give you a context menu which should have an Open With... option (if you are not using Windows 2000 and don't see the 'open with' menu item, try holding down the shift button while right click on the file). Select the Open With... option, then, when the dialog appears highlight javaw and select the "Always use this program to open these files" checkbox. When you hit the OK button you should have all your jar files associated with the javaw process.
Once you've done this, you should be able to double click on your jar file and run your application.

How do I run a Jar file?

Hey,
I created a program that I want my friend to use so he can send me some information about his server. however, I can't figure out how to make it work with a jar file. For instance, I have a .class file called server and also a txt file called Manifest.txt so I write this command in my terminal.
jar cf serv server.class Manifest.txt
this then creates the jar file. Within the "Manifest" file I have written,
Main-Class: server
Now when I try to run this program I type in
java -jar serv
then it out puts this.
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
serv
When I run the program with my JDK it works perfectly fine and the little server runs without a problem. I am extremely new to working with jar files to make programs work so I feel like im over looking something stupid. Does anyone know what else I need todo to make this program run? Thanks ,
Cobbweb

Isn't the "manifest" supposed to live in the jar's
"meta-inf" folder, and be named "manifest.mf" (not
manifest.txt)?Yeah, but wouldn't you think the "jar" command would take care of those details? The help for its "m" options just says "include manifest information from specified manifest file".
There are stupid things to watch out for, though, like having a proper line-ending (e.g. CR/LF) on the last line of the manifest file. And usually you make the name of your jar file have a ".jar" extension, although I doubt it would be a problem if you didn't do that.
Looking inside the jar file would tell you a lot. Such as if the server.class file wasn't in it, or was in it but in the wrong directory, and so on.

How can I generate a JAR file like SwingSet2.jar (jdk1.3)

How can I create a jar file at a Unix systems?

Thanks,

How can i find the jar file version in Solaris

Hi,all.
I just forget the java command by which i can know a jar file's version.I searched the jar command manual,unfortunately there is nothing helpful.
Can anyone tell me what should i do?
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure that there is any version information related to a JAR file. And if you look at the JAR classes in the API docs, there is nothing related to the version. There can be a version number in the MANIFEST though, but not related to the JAR itself.

How Can I get the Jar file path ?

I have an aplication in a Jar file. This application might be situated in any directory.
I would like to know programatically the path where it was installed.
Is there any way to know this simple thing in Java? I cannot believe that there is not a function like System.getProperty("user.dir") for this as System.getProperty("user.dir") will always return the directory from where the Java VM was lauched!
Thank you!

You can get the location with:
URL codeBase = getClass().getProtectionDomain().getCodeBase().getLocation();But as has been pointed out, it's probably better to specify the directory to store these files some other way, e.g. use a batch file or shell script to launch your program and make it the cuirrent directory, or put the directory in as a property or command argument.
