How to make .exe file with JDK!

[hyjacked]

I'm not sure about a .exe file, mainly because java needs a jvm in order to run as far as I know. but I know a friend who worked on a project over the summer where he had an executable jar file, where if you double click on it, it would run the program just as an exe would.

Hope that helps.

The short answer is that you can't :-(

There is a comercial product that will do this, off the top of my head I can't remember what it's called but I do remember that the price was way out of the home users range.

I've just done some searching on Sourceforge and the best I could find was a couple of programs that could convert your java code into ANSI C which you could then use one of the free compilers (such as GCC) to create an exe.

Under windows (I believe it's by default) you can have JAR files autorun on doubleclick. I think that they need to contain a class that has the same name as the jar file and this file must contain a 'main' method.

Hope I've been of some help
