How to generate an executable jar file with the jar command

If you have generated a Zh.class file with the Zh.java file

If the path to Zh.class is Bin/com/zhang/zh.class

A MANIFEST.MF file is placed in the bin directory with the following file contents:

manifest-version:1.0 Created-by:1.5.0_06 (Sun Microsystems Inc.) Main-class:com.zhang.zh

Note that the Main-class heel must be the full path to the class that contains the main method.

Then use the command to go to the bin directory to execute the jar CVMF zh.jar MANIFEST.MF *

You will get Zh.jar in the bin directory

Take a look at Java-jar Zh.jar.
