Hello,
I am just testing waters with Launch4J. I use linux as development environment. I would like to produce an .exe file for windows platform. I would like to drive the build/release process via ant script, not GUI if possible. Here is the problem I am getting.
I created an ant file target to do job. It produces output exe without any problem. When I fire it, it says exe requires Java 1.6 (or whatever minVersion I provided in my script). However it fails to locate installed JRE and JDK on my machine (JDK is in my environment PATH and JAVA_HOME is defined).
I couldn't figure out why it couldn't locate it through ant script. So, I created a configuration file using launch4j GUI. Within the GUI, I generated wrappers and tested it. It actually fired my application.
However I was puzzled to see that output exe still fails to locate the installed JRE/JDK when I fire it from command line using the configuration file I have just created.
I am sure I am missing something simple and very basic, and this question may look very dumb for seasoned launch4j users. But I would appreciate if you share your wisdom with me.
More about environment I user:
Ubuntu x86 32 bit.
Not providing bundled JRE, instead I am rely on existence of JRE on client side.
Here is my config file.
<launch4jConfig>
<dontWrapJar>false</dontWrapJar>
<headerType>gui</headerType>
<jar>/home/MyProject/release/jar/myApp.jar</jar>
<outfile>/home/MyProject/release/32bit/linux/myApp.exe</outfile>
