A little help from you all… I was trying to convert a simple java

  • 0

A little help from you all…
I was trying to convert a simple java program into jar but nothing seems to have happened.
I have 2 files: Tester.java , Tester.Class.
Then I used this command line:

jar -cvf Tester.jar Tester.class

The .jar file was created but nothing seems to work.
What did I miss?

    To run the program in the jar file you created you would need to execute

    java -cp Tester.jar your.package.Main
    

    A more convenient way to execute the jar is to be able to do

    java -jar Tester.jar
    

    That, however, requires that you specify the main-class in a manifest file, that should be included in the jar-file:

    • Put

      Manifest-Version: 1.2
      Main-Class: your.package.Main
      

      in manifest.txt

    • And to create the jar:

      jar cvfm Tester.jar manifest.txt Tester.class
