#8 Problems with Locale
Hi, I'm a newbie to Launch4j.
I have java(ver 1.4.2_06) and ant(ver 1.6.5) installed
on my box.
I need launch4j for our project as I need it to be
able to package a swing app, an embedded database and
also an embedded jre all into the one executable.
So, I've download the latest 2.1.2 version and have
installed it.
I then rebuilt the launch4j.jar file by executing the
ant script with the 'jar' target in the root folder.
This successfully created me a new launch4j.jar file.
I then went to the demo folder, namely the SimpleApp
folder and ran the 'compile', 'jar' and then the 'exe'
ant targets. The 'compile' and 'jar' targets compiled
successfully, but I get a failure when running
the 'exe' target to do with my locale. I ran the ant
with -debug option, i.e ant exe -debug
Any help would be great, I reiterate I'm a newbie.
Interested to know if anyone else has had trouble
building the SimpleApp.
Here is the trail end of my stack trace.....

Thanks for the report, I'll check that.
>I need launch4j for our project as I need it to be

Use Launch4j on the swing app jar to create an application
exe, and then an installer to pack all the files in one
executable. NSIS and InnoSetup are very good.

thanks Grzegorz,
for the info regarding installers (NSIS & InnoSetup).
At the momement, I still can't get past the
MissingResourceException - Can't find bundle for base name
net.slf.launch4j.config.messages, locale en_AU.
This is stopping me building the initial Swing app into an
executable.
You mentioned you're checking it, so as soon as you have
any info that could help, it'd be appreciated.
thanks.

Grzegorz,
I've since got it to work by changing my locale to English
(United States).
To replicate my problem, assuming you're running Windows,
go to Settings/Control Panel/Region Options and try
changing your locale to English(Australia). Run 'ant exe'
on the SimpleApp project. You should get the issue I'm
talking about.
I assume then that anyone in Australia would be striking
this locale problem.
thanks.

It was a bug in launch4j build file. It didn't copy the
messages so the rebuilt launch4j.jar was incomplete.
I've attached the corrected script.
