    Re: Application Distribution

    Well, Java applications ARE compiled into executables .Class files that are parsed by javas JIT compiler.

    What you're asking is wether or not you can use a windows .exe to launch your java application and the short answer is no - not natively.

    You can however, either make a batch file using windows scripting, or write a small launcher in C++/VB6/Someotherlanguagethatmakesexecutables.

    Hope it helps.

    Or you can use a java-to-native compiler, which exists. Not sure if there is a good one for Windows, but they exist.
