  • Unable to create Executable JAR file

    Hi,
    I tried to create Executable JAR file for
    //JarTest.java
    class JarTest
         public static void main( String args[] )
              System.out.println("i am EXECUTABLE JAR ");
    mf is like
    Manifest-Version: 1.0
    Main-Class: JarTest
    used jar cmf JarTest.mf exe.jar *.classIt created a jar file but i can't Execute the file
    Help me
    Thanks
    AE

    java is choosy about the actual manifest file format (line ending, trailing empty line, whatever).
    This works for me with your example:
    posman@proli:~/ivan/aa> cat mf
    Manifest-Version: 1.0
    Main-Class: JarTest
    posman@proli:~/ivan/aa> od -cx mf

  • How to create a jar file which is in the remote system?

    Hi,
    I have a set of files that resides in a remote system,which have to be "jar"red. I have a firewall in between. I want to create a jar file out of the files situated in the remote system.How do i go about this process.?

    Hi,
    You can't do that in a simple way. You need to have a port open in the firewall, and you need to have a server process on the remote machine.

  • How to create a Jar files

    I m New in java i want to create a jar files but i dont know how please anyone help me and answer my question thanks.

    Hi muhammadawood,
    Creating a jar file is easy. First of all, a jar file is not much more than a zip file. You can use your favorite zip program (ie. zip, WinZip, pkzip, etc) to create the jar. To do this, zip all your classes together into a zip file. Then, rename the file w/ a .jar extension. This method doesn't support a small set of features defined by jar, but it will work nonetheless.
    If you are using the Forte IDE, it has the ability to create a jar from a menu.

  • How to create executable jar in eclipse using linking in compiler

    Hi,
    I have a project in Eclipse. I wrote already an ant build file for creating an executable jar which includes all project files.
    Now I want to create a second executable jar which is a subset of the project (a limited number of classes are necessary).
    I have a main class and I was looking for a way to generate a jar file which includes the main class and all the depending classes.
    Is there a way to do it? With ant or with another tool?
    Is it possible to compile a project given a main class, and include all depending classes?
    Regards,
    Biebel

    Some more information:
    When I compile all the classes, the jar file is +/- 3.5Mb inclusive the server side logic.
    The subproject I want to build, should be less then 1Mb (Only some screens and beans, no business logic ((only +/- 10% of the projects code) )).
    My question is: How can I create a executable jar with only the necessary class files which depends on the main class. (Linked with the imports).
    Is there a tool to do that? Can it be done with an ANT script? If so, how does the script looks?
    What are you talking about?
    You already said that you are using Ant.
    Ant uses script files.
    Since you have one with X items in it and you want something new with X-Y items in it the obviously it would make sense to construct an ant script that does less than the other ant script.
    The following provides a huge amount of information about Ant.
    [http://ant.apache.org/resources.html]
    Other than that no one can tell you want your Ant script will look like except that it will do less than the one that you already have.

  • How to create a jar file as a library in java?

    Let me put it simple: rb.java is already put under /home/jiane/rb/rb.java;
    the tar file rb.tar being located under /mylib/rbcore/, the test client is put under /home/jiane/test.java. now rb.java looks like
    //// rb.java
    import java.until.*;
    public class rb {
    %>jar cvf /mylib/rbcore/rb.jar /home/jiane/rb.class
    test.java as below
    //// test.java
    import mylib.rbcore.*;
    import java.until.*;
    class test {
    %>export CLASSPATH="/mylib/rbcore/rb.jar;."
    %>javac test.java
    %>test.java:1 package mylib.rbcore does not exist
    so, how to make adjustment to rb.java & test.java so that I can make use of jar file rb.jar. please shows the steps to do. thanks a lot.

    import mylib.rbcore.*;This assumes the package mylib.rbcore and imports all its classes.
    But the source of the class does contain package statement, so the class is in the default package.

  • How to create Comile jar file

    hi

    Eclipse: file -> export -> jar file ...
    command prompt jar
    Usage: jar {ctxu}[vfm0Mi] [jar-file] [manifest-file] [-C dir] files ...
    Options:
        -c  create new archive
        -t  list table of contents for archive
        -x  extract named (or all) files from archive
        -u  update existing archive
        -v  generate verbose output on standard output
        -f  specify archive file name
        -m  include manifest information from specified manifest file
        -0  store only; use no ZIP compression
        -M  do not create a manifest file for the entries
        -i  generate index information for the specified jar files
        -C  change to the specified directory and include the following file
    If any file is a directory then it is processed recursively.
    The manifest file name and the archive file name needs to be specified
    in the same order the 'm' and 'f' flags are specified.
    Example 1: to archive two class files into an archive called classes.jar:
           jar cvf classes.jar Foo.class Bar.class
    Example 2: use an existing manifest file 'mymanifest' and archive all the
               files in the foo/ directory into 'classes.jar':
           jar cvfm classes.jar mymanifest -C foo/ .http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jar/TOC.html

  • Creating an executable jar-file including a custom package

    I am trying to learn how to create executable jar-files. I have managed this with a single class. However having a class which is an extention of another class which in turn belongs to custom package, I can't make it work.Running the program normally is not a problem. I don't think the problem is the actual code, but I will include it here anyway. I create the jar-file using:
    jar -cmf Direkt2b.txt Direkt2b.jar *.class
    where Direkt2b.txt is just:
    Main-Class: Diriekt2b
    Only the main class-file is included this way. Copying the other file to the same directory before creation doesn't help either. There is no error messages, the jar-file just refuses to run no matter what.
    The main-class:
    import java.awt.*;
    import extra.*;
    class Direkt2b extends ExtendedFrame {
         Font f;
         Direkt2b() {
              f = new Font("SansSerif", Font.BOLD, 24);
              setBackground(Color.yellow);
              setSize(400,150);
         public void paint(Graphics g) {
              g.setFont(f);
              g.setColor(Color.blue);
              g.drawString("V?lkommen till Java Direkt", 45, 100);
         public static void main (String[] arg) {
              Direkt2b d2 = new Direkt2b();
              d2.setVisible(true);
    The help-class:
    package extra;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ExtendedFrame extends Frame {
         private static boolean first = true;
         private boolean isFirst = first;
         public ExtendedFrame() {
              addWindowListener(theListener);
              first=false;
         WindowAdapter theListener = new WindowAdapter () {
              public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
              dispose();
              if (isFirst)
                   System.exit(0);
    }

    My problem wasn't really getting more than one class in a jar-file,
    but rather that my jar-file with multiple classes wouldn't execute.
    Reading the original post I realized that maybe I was unclear about that.
    However I have solved the problem now so for anybody reading this
    thread in the future I will tell you how.
    The general setting is this: You have a bunch of self-made help-classes
    organized in some classdirectory somewhere in the filesystem. You use these
    in your programming from time to time. You have set a classpath-varible
    in your OS such that Java could find your help-classes.
    Now you want to create executable jar-files so that you could publish your work.
    My problem was that while I added all needed classes in a jar-file, the main-class
    couldn't find the others because they were referenced incorrectly. The solution I
    came up with may not be elegant, but it works. I copied the main-class and all directories
    (only one in my case) just as they appear in the classpath-directory, to the same temporary
    directory. Then I created the jar-file from there, using: jar -cmfv Direkt2b.txt Direkt2b.jar Direkt2b.class extra/*.class
    I suspected that incorrect referencing was the problem and I tried several variations on the theme above
    before giving up and writing the first post. Part the problem was that I didn't get any error messages,
    just an annoying error-sound double-clicking the jar-file. I learned later that you could run jar-files from
    the command -prompt using: java -jar myjarfile.jar. This way you get a more useful response.
    I guess there is a way to include the classpath instead somehow, but I will use my method for now.
    I hope this was helpful to somebody.

  • Can we make executable jar file which dont have main method?

    I have a problem.
    With whatever R&D i have done so far my understanding is that in order to create executable jar files i need a main method.
    my problem is i have certain MIS reports which are developed in java and deployed through JSP pages...so my java program has no Main Method and only objects of the classes are being called in the JSP pages.
    for e.g: i have a java class file BulkSms.class and i make an object of it in the JSP page through which my purpose is achieved by calling various method in the BulkSms through it s objects and there is no main method.
    Can i make an executable jar file without a main method and if so please give me a detailed procedure of how to go about it.
    i want to make it executable so tht on the click of it the MIS report is displayed from the JSP page.

    I am completely ignorant of JSPs, but you can not execute a jar or any java application unless you have a main method. It sounds like you need a way to launch the JSP - can't you do this with a browser?

  • Classpath is not working for executable jar file

    I have created executable jar file using following command where manifest file contains Main-Class and Class-Path entries.
    jar cvfm app.jar META-INF/* lib/* *.class
    So here app.jar contains my external jar's in lib directory
    but when I move app.jar to another directory, it's doesn't get my external files.
    I'm not getting this problem as these jar's are in app.jar
    class-path entry in manifest file:
    Class-Path: lib/abc.jar lib/xyz.jar
    Pls help me where it is getting fail?
    Thanks in advance,

    Java doesn't handle jars within jars. Your library jars need to be outside of the executable jar as in
    dist - main.jar
          - lib  -  lib1.jar
                 -  lib2.jar
