Java Swing Stand-alone application

[Anu Narayanan]

How do I run this Java Swing stand alone application outside the IDE?

Welcome to JavaRanch.

What is "this" application? Any application can be run by executing the class containing the "main" method from the command line. If you create a jar file containing the application in an IDE, it might even create a double-clickable jar file.

Thanks I just created an executable jar file and was able to run it.
