Problems creating a jar executable file...
Hi there, I am new to these forums, my name is Jay.
I am trying to create an executable .jar file for my program I created in JBuilder 2005, with java files and several other files as well. I am having MAJOR problems with either the main class not being found or failing to load Main-Class manifest attribute.
I tried to make a .txt with two lines, including the first with the MAIN-CLASS: className and stuff and a second line blank, and use the cmf command line to run it and include it in there. I ran it and created it no problem, but then I try to run it, and I get the error of the main class not being found and I have specified the correct directory and class name.
Then I try to make my own manifest file with the correct directory and class name by making a txt file into an .mf file and when I try the cf command line this time, it gives me the error of failing to load Main-Class manifest attribute.
I have even followed the tutorials on the Sun developer website including Manifest making and stuff and everything.
I have worked on this program (java) for months and I am now STUCK. If someone could maybe give me some assistance or suggestions as to what my problem might be, I would greatly appreciate it so much. Or if you want, you can e-mail me, @ rjs_bird@yahoo.com with suggestions. Thank you all very much.
I have a folder in a directory. It's called SuperPassword, which is the folder where my project files and EVERYTHING is. my .class files are in the classes/superpassword subdirectory of the folder SuperPassword, my java files are in the src/superpassword subdirectory and my manifest file and txt files are in the SuperPassword main directory. Maybe that could give you guys a bit of a hint as to what I am dealing with, I want to explain it as clearly as possible.
Jay
