Deploying netbeans applications - jar file error (could not find main class)


I have a small GUI application developed with netbeans.

I used the 'clean and build' option to build an executable jar file. .jar file works in my pc. But when i sent the application to my friend he says that it throws 'cannot find the main class' error.

what could be the reason?

Thanks in advance...


Solution

  • Open project property, select run and set Main-Class (textfield) attribute.

    EDIT:

    Execute the main class in .jar application,

    java -jar Application.jar
