JSmooth creates standard Windows executable files (.exe) that smartly launch java applications. It makes java deployment much smoother and user-friendly, as it is able to find and run Java VMs by itself, or help the user get one if none are available.

First I tried out winrun4j, but I pretty soon faced issues due to missing JVM when running on the computers of my friends. Then I found JSmooth, which is able to build an app including the JVM, including the ICO file, no need for an INI file, and also includes the JAR file. My first attempts failed, and so I did some quick Google research for a tutorial and I found this one here really useful: Look for "Create an Exe from a Jar File [UPDATED]" from "VertexDigitalArts" on uTube. The documentation at the website of JSmooth is ok, but it actually didn't help me to get an executable. It's a lot of stuff to read over there, and most of it ain't quiet relevant if you just want to get started. Yes, even the Quick Start couldn't help. Anyways, after watching the video I was nearly able to create my desired file. Somehow the compiling process either took forever or just failed, or the program did not respond anymore. I managed to narrow the problems down to these, when using the "console" skeleton: Using an ICO file will cause the compiler to run forever, even if it's 32x32 at 8bit colors. I highly recommend just using a PNG image instead of an ICO file. That way you can even have transparent parts in your icon, and more then 8bit colors. The program often freezes while switching menus, or when idle for some minutes. In this case just X-close the app or kill it by your task manager - and start over ;) There is something I would call an overlay-bug, since visual parts from other menus are overlaying the current menu. In order to make these overlays go away, and unveil the actual menu you have to move your mouse over the window or switch the whole menu. After like half an hour everything worked well, and the tool did what it is there for. I do fair 4 stars rating in total, because of the mentioned problems, as well as the not so intuitive design. But in my heart this piece of software really got a 5-stars rating, so definitively download and use this baby :)

Very nice! I've been wanting a Jar to Exe converter, and here it is! Highly recommended! Must for any Java programmer! The design could be better though. Maybe update it, add a few tooltips. It would also be nice to be able to sign my exe files. Besides that, well done! 4 stars!

good job!

Great project, but only seems to work with 32bit java, which is less and less in use.

Hi Is there any equivalence for linux platforms?
