Thread: How to create .exe file for project based on Netbeans 6.5?

Hello haygaurav and welcome to the Java Programming Forums.

As far as im aware, you cannot make a Java exe file using Netbeans.

You are going to need to find a convertor. These are applications that will convert your .java/.jar file into an executable .exe.

These links should clear things up for you:

Convert Java to EXE - Why, When, When Not and How

Let us know how you get on. It would be interesting to report your results.

Thank you.

I find this a interesting problem, I have not checked out the link this time, I did read it once before, one would think that since the OAK project failed & it was internet that saved the day and gave us what is now JAVA, that to make sure the foot is in the door and make JAVA really really really good that there would be a option to make a stand alone project.


But my question is if you can not make a EXE file from your *.java work, what about having a set of files so if you take all your *.class to a computer that does not have JRE (Java Runtime Environment) installed on that computer you can still run your project.
