Exe app with Java

Posted by Hiran on January 17, 2002 at 2:21 PM

I know there's been quite a few posts regarding exe apps and java, but I was wondering how I could make an exe app with Java. Actually, let me clarify. I want to have either a shortcut, or a small application, pointing to my JAR file, so when the user clicks on it, the JVM will start up and run my JAR file. Right now the only thing I know how to do is to creat a JAR file and run the JAR file from the command line, which is extremely incovenient for a user. Any help here is greatly appreciated. Thank!
