Self-Extracting JAR
I have a JAR file called Installer.jar and its contents are some class files and another jar called Updater.jar
The Installer.jar extracts the Updater to a user-specified destination, and then the updater downloads all the needed files from the internet. This worked except when I did the following:
1. Download from FireFox
2. Click "Open"
I get the error:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: SFC_Installer.jar (The system cannot find the file specified)
at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method)
at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(Unknown Source)
at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(Unknown Source)
at install.JarResources.init(JarResources.java:57)
at install.JarResources.<init>(JarResources.java:31)
at install.OperatingSystem.run(OperatingSystem.java:80)
This is because it searching for this jar file in the System.getProperty("user.dir") directory. When clicking "open" from firefox, the current directory is not that of the file. How do I get this to work even when someone presses "open" instead of directly double-clicking the file?
Thanks in advance.
