BUILD OUTPUT DESCRIPTION
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
When you build an Java application project that has a main class, the IDE
|
|
automatically copies all of the JAR
|
|
files on the projects classpath to your projects dist/lib folder. The IDE
|
|
also adds each of the JAR files to the Class-Path element in the application
|
|
JAR files manifest file (MANIFEST.MF).
|
|
|
|
To run the project from the command line, go to the dist folder and
|
|
type the following:
|
|
|
|
java -jar "Library.jar"
|
|
|
|
To distribute this project, zip up the dist folder (including the lib folder)
|
|
and distribute the ZIP file.
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
* If two JAR files on the project classpath have the same name, only the first
|
|
JAR file is copied to the lib folder.
|
|
* Only JAR files are copied to the lib folder.
|
|
If the classpath contains other types of files or folders, these files (folders)
|
|
are not copied.
|
|
* If a library on the projects classpath also has a Class-Path element
|
|
specified in the manifest,the content of the Class-Path element has to be on
|
|
the projects runtime path.
|
|
* To set a main class in a standard Java project, right-click the project node
|
|
in the Projects window and choose Properties. Then click Run and enter the
|
|
class name in the Main Class field. Alternatively, you can manually type the
|
|
class name in the manifest Main-Class element.
