Title: Running a LWJGL application from a runnable JAR?
Post by: SpuTTer on November 20, 2003, 07:51:10
Is it possible to run a LWJGL application from a runnable JAR with the DLL files inside the jar? What methods do you use? Currently I just have my jar zipped up with the dlls, and it has to be extractetd first.

I do plan to implement webstart as an option, but I was curious if anyone had a solution for "the old fashion way".

Nope, you can't put DLLs inside normal jars. You DO put them inside Webstart jars though. Have a look at the Alien Flux JNLP file.

Cas :)
