Jar file generation from single class file

Question

I have an applet file which just displays hello world statement.How could i generate a jar file using the simple one class file that i am having.

I tried creating it from command line using the command jar cvfe hello.jar hello *.class

But when i tried executing the jar file,there is no applet being displayed.

Answer 1

Are you trying to run directly from command page or from an HTML page?

1. In the first case you should look here:Starting Java applet directly from jar file
2. In the second case you should have a look here: Java Applet in JAR File

Hope this helps.
