Question

As I understood, I need to make a jar file in order to get the .exe.

My problem: I have the method:

public static void main(String[] args){

in EX1 class. When I make: Export --> Java --> Runnable Jar file, the class EX1 is not one of my options. What can be the reason?

Thanks

Java doesn’t have exe files; you’ll have a runnable jar; a xxx.jar file. You can execute it as follows:

java -jar xxx.jar

also, to be able to export the runnable jar, you might have to make a run configuration first…it’s somewhere in the menu or icon shortcuts of eclipse
