Jar Ajar is an integrated packager, self-extractor, installer, and launcher:
Type a message to greet your audience. When they double-click on the Jar Ajar self-extractor, the first text they see will be this message. You can include HTML and CSS tags.
Example: This package will install and run Your Application. After installing, you can double-click this package again to run Your Application.
Give your package a name. If you're packaging an application, this field is normally the name of the application, without spaces, slashes, etc. The resulting package will have this name, and it will appear on the title of your package after your audience opens it.
Example: TextTrix
Enter the version number of your package, which can be a full string.
Example: 2.6beta4-14
.
Specify the main graphic, visible right at your package's opening. The logo should be approximately 100x200 px, saved in PNG, BMP, GIF, or JPGEG format.
Example: /home/bob/Logo.png
Your package will be output to the directory specified in the Extras panel, or by default to the working directory. A packager.xml
file is also output to the working directory as summary build file of the pacakging process. You can use the Load Build File button to load this file and redo the build process. You can also specify this file as a parameter to create packages completely from the command line.
Example: java -jar JarAjar.jar pacakger.xml
