Hi,
manifest attribute that the error says, is a file containing the version and company of the java compiler used for the java classes, and also specifies the main class of your program. So if you want to be able to run you app only typing:
% java -jar MyJar.jar
You need to specify it when you create the jar file with the flag 'm' (try using jar --help for more info). For example:
% jar cvfm MyJar.jar manifest.MF -C bin .
creates a jar called MyJar.jar with the classes on the directory bin and uses the manifest file manifest.MF. The manifest file looks like:
Manifest-Version: 1.2
Main-Class: org.example.xtreme.ApplicationRun
Created-By: 1.4 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Its pointing to the class I use to run my application, called ApplicationRun
