ok. I have newbie questions here for you mac experts!!
Im developing on Mac OS 10.3.9 with java 1.4_2.
I have ant "working", and I am simply trying to use jarBundler to
bundle my jar file into a .app file so that clearly I can make file
associations, and assign a mac-like icon.
the weird thing is that now when I run the ant file (ant -buildfile
build.xml), it is reported that my file is "Successfully Built".
Only there is no .app file for my application on my entire computer! I
did have to work through some initial errors in my build.xml file, but
I solved all of those issues, and now it runs without errors. But
Successfully Built? I dont think so...
here is my build.xml file, please let me know what you suggest!
my directory structure is something like...
Ant_Home/bin/MyDir/Build/
- - - - -
<project name="My App" >
<target name="simplexxx" description="Make Stuff">
<taskdef name="jarbundler"
classpath="./jarbundler-2.0.0.jar"
classname="net.sourceforge.jarbundler.JarBundler" verbose="true" />
<jarbundler dir="./MyDir/Build" verbose="true"
name="MyApp"
mainclass="MyApp.MyClass"
jar="/MyDir/Build/Mac_Run.jar"
icon="icons/macIcons.icns"
version="0" />
</target>
</project>

Subject: JarBundler / Ant - where is the output?
hi fellow java developers!
I finished an application and I am trying to launch it on the mac.
Now I finally got it working on the OS, and now I wanted to make it
look a bit more "native" by being an .app file.
i used Ant, with jarBundler - and after running a build, it states
"build successful" only I don't know where to find the outputed file!
Perhaps there is no output? But since Im using jarbundler - it states
that it would output a .app file - which appears to be either not
being built, or put somewhere where I dont know where it is.
Any thoughts?
(Im a mac newb, and I cannot use xcode due to using 10.3.9 system)
Thanks!
