How to package and run my application?

[Bin Smith]

Hello!

I have project in which there is ant file given below. I need somehow to run main class from command-line.

But I don't know how to modify this ant file to tell it include Main-Class property in MANIFEST.MF file which should be in swarm.jar.

<project name="USGS VHP" default="help" basedir=".">

	<property name="classdir" value="classes" />

</project>

Finally I need to create windows batch file that will run main class in swarm.jar?

Thank you!

There is a manifest tag that you can use in your parent jar tag. Look at snippet below

<target name="jar"> <mkdir dir="build/jar"/> <jar destfile="build/jar/FinalJarNameHere.jar" basedir="build/classes"> <manifest> <attribute name="Main-Class" value="com.package.YourMainClassHere"/> </manifest> </jar> </target>

As for the batch file , I would first like you to try it out yourself and post whatever you have tried here and then I will guide you along the way !
