[java] How to setup Main class in manifest file in jar produced by NetBeans project

Brother you don't need to set class path just follow these simple steps (I use Apache NetBeans)

Steps:

  1. extract the jar file which you want to add in your project.

  2. only copy those packages (folder) which you need in the project. (do not copy manifest file)

  3. open the main project jar file(dist/file.jar) with WinRAR.

  4. paste that folder or package in the main project jar file.

  5. Those packages work 100% in your project.

warning: Do not make any changes in the manifest file.

Another method:

  • In my case lib folder present outside the dist(main jar file) folder.
  • we need to move lib folder in dist folder.then we set class path from manifest.mf file of main jar file.

    Edit the manifest.mf And ADD this type of line

  • Class-Path: lib\foldername\jarfilename.jar lib\foldername\jarfilename.jar

Warning: lib folder must be inside the dist folder otherwise jar file do not access your lib folder jar files
