I have studied Java Web Start and found it complex and clumsy for my purposes. In addition, my app needs to access the PC resources, which causes more hoops to be jumped through with Java Web Start. To add to the difficulties I need to access a 32-bit native library (libvlc) so I need to insure that my app runs under 32-bit Java. Is there an easy way to deploy my app without resorting to Java Web Start? Needless to say, I want everything to be contained in a single .exe file.
I would start by searching the Internet for keywords such as “
java 2 exe” and “jar to exe“, etc. Doing so yields many freely available software packages that convert Java programs into Windows executables, for example:And the list goes on. Perhaps one of them meets your needs?
