Author Java executables

Hi all-

I've noticed a number of programs that are written in Java that provide
executables like Eclipse. Is there a proper method for creating these?
I acknowledge that it means providing an executable for the various
supported platforms, but I'm okay with that.

Thanks,

Tacho

There are a few tools that can package up jars into an excutable, when
the excutable is run the jars are put outside of it.

I've only tried NativeJ and been happy enough to not try others. There
are others. NativeJ used to have a free version that poped up a dialog
that essentially said "this program made with NativeJ" and had no other
restrictions.

Hmm....I wonder if the Eclipse folks use such a tool. I haven't built
it myself to find out, but I'd think they would shy away from
proprietary programs.

There's also Java Launcher, which can be found at

Roedy, I didn't see this one on your list - maybe you're interesting in
adding this to your link section?

Regards,

JC
