[Java-gnome-developer] Making native binaries

[Thomas P. <per...@ao...>]

Hello, List!

I'm currently developing a GUI for FunkyMD using java-gnome (the libgtk-
java thing actually only).

As I don't want to require ALL users who just want to run the program
but are not motivated to download and install java-gnome, I want to
compile my java code into a native linux binary.

I've tried this with gcj, and it looks like it is working somehow.

Can somebody come up with a step-by-step instruction on how to compile a
java-gnome application "right" and how to deploy it then? (statically
linked executable?, putting libs into the package? which libs?)

Thanks for all information!
