deleting unwanted classes from JDK....
we are implementing a swing application. the client need the deployment package in floppy(can number upto 4 numbers) , not CDROM. How can i possibly pack the JDK into this size. Is there any way by which i can find out all the classes that need to be used in my application so that i can remove the others from the JDK(if it isnt against the license)...
Also if any one has any other points that they think i need to consider here please let me know, would be of great help.
thanks

Hi! First of all, you do not need the JDK for a client installation. You need the JRE! The compressed size of the JRE is about 5MB. You could, of course, install the JRE on your machine and then repackage it in smaller chunks. However, that's rather painful. Perhaps you can check to see if you can install the JRE on a server at the client site. Users can then either point to the JRE using a shared drive (or something along those lines) or install the JRE on the users' machines from that server.
Hope this helps some!
Cheers!
