Put external library to the JAR?
I have NetBeans 6.8 and I wrote one class which has two libraries (jar-files).
Building it, I get a “dist” folder with my project.jar and a “lib” folder which contains the two lib jar files.
How could I get all this in one jar file?
(I do not use Maven/Ant or something like this.)
The basic problem is that the current version of Java does not support jars inside jars out of the box.
The recommended solution is to use the Class-Path line in the MANIFEST.MF file inside your jar to point to required libraries (relative paths are allowed) and then deploy all files together and invoking it with “java -jar your.jar”
If you really want to have a “jar-inside-jar” solution, we have used one-jar for several years, but gone away from it since our target JVM worked better with the solution described above.

I used it with the fatjar plugin in Eclipse. I do not have any experiences with building it into Netbeans, but it is simple to build into an ant script which I believe is what NEtbeans use anyway.
