Kawa 5.0 problem creating jar files
white-knight
im having difficulties generating jar files from 2 classes sketcher , and
sketchframe .Sketcher.class is thye main class.when i do not include the
option of including a manifest file,it generates the jar file but when i try
to execute it in the directory it is in i get the error message "could not
find the main class.program will exit jar". one of the classes is flagged as
the main class as well as containg the main method.when i do check the
option to include the manifest file and then leave the manifest blank i get
the message:
c:\jdk1.3.1\bin\jar.exe -cvfm0 trysketch "SketchFrame.class"
"Sketcher.class"
Working Directory - C:\My Documents
Class Path - C:\PROGRA~1\PHOTOD~1.0\ADOBEC~1;.;C:\Kawapro5.0\kawaclasses.zip
java.io.IOException: invalid header field

at sun.tools.jar.Main.run(Main.java:125)
at sun.tools.jar.Main.main(Main.java:904)
Process Exit...
if i try to give it the name "newfile" (the manifest) it gives me this
error.there is no file with taht name but i was under the impression that
the jar utility would generate a default.
c:\jdk1.3.1\bin\jar.exe -cvfm0 trysketch newfile "SketchFrame.class"
"Sketcher.class"
Working Directory - C:\My Documents
Class Path - C:\PROGRA~1\PHOTOD~1.0\ADOBEC~1;.;C:\Kawapro5.0\kawaclasses.zip
java.io.FileNotFoundException: newfile (The system cannot find the file
specified)

at sun.tools.jar.Main.run(Main.java:124)
at sun.tools.jar.Main.main(Main.java:904)
Process Exit...
all files are in the same directory and are listed as such in the options as
specified.if someone could please give me guidance so that i may generate
this jar through kawa 5.0 pro,or give me weblinks to a step by step how to
make a jar "executable " tutorial .
thank you
