I have my .jar file.I want to convert it into .deb file. Is there any software for this?  please dont give comments like.....you can execute a jar straight away by giving "java -jar io.jar". I need to know about the software which converts a jar or some other file in to a Ubuntu exetuble.

My project is to develop an installer which is an executable for Windows, Mac and Ubuntu. The executables on Windows, Mac and Ubuntu are .exe, .app and .deb respectively. So, I converted my .jar file to a .exe file on Windows using a software called launch4j. And on MAC I used a software called Jar-Bundler to convert my jar in to .app file. I want to know if there is any specific software on Ubuntu to convert my jar file in to a .deb file.

For users running Java application or applets in the browser, what difference does it make running either Sun Java or OpenJDK?  EDIT  Oracle will be , and basing the proprietary implementation on OpenJDK. Can we expect similar experience in running Java apps using either OpenJDK or Oracle JDK?

It has always bothered me that the only way to copy a file in Java involves opening streams, declaring a buffer, reading in one file, looping through it, and writing it out to the other steam.  The web is littered with similar, yet still slightly different implementations of this type of solution.  Is there a better way that stays within the bounds of the Java language (meaning does not involve exec-ing OS specific commands)?  Perhaps in some reliable open source utility package, that would at least obscure this underlying implementation and provide a one line solution?

I'm contemplating writing a script that does this:   Goes through each file in /usr/lib Does a dpkg -s search on each file. Reports a list of "orphan" files not belonging to any .deb package.   The idea is that over time, I've installed a lot of make install software and I'd like to get a list of leftover files from manually installed software I've since deleted.

I'm trying to take a .bat file and make it a .sh   This is the working .bat file   @echo off title runserver "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\java.exe" -Xmx815m -cp bin;lib/*; com.rs.Launcher true true false pause   this is my .sh file so far:  #!/bin/sh java -Xmx815m -cp bin;lib/*; com.rs.Launcher true true false pause   Is this wrong? Am I far off? I don't really know what I'm doing when it comes to .sh files so any help will be appreciated! Thanks a lot!

I'm just starting to use , (evaluating it, really) and I need to be able to quickly generate a  file for my application and a directory with all the dependencies (for example, lib) so that I can deploy those two to be run in a stand-alone manner.  Generating the JAR file with the proper manifest is easy, but I do not know how to get Maven to copy the dependencies for the current project into a lib directory that I can deploy.    Since this is for a stand-alone Java applications, I am not interested in deploying to a Maven repository, that is also fairly trivial, or at least easily googleable.  I've found out how to do everything except copy the dependent JAR files into some specified directory.  This is the workflow I'm looking for:  $ mvn clean $ mvn package $ cp -r target/{lib,myApp.jar} installLocation   Then, running myApp.jar from installLocation as a JAR file should "just work" regardless of my $CLASSPATH.  To try and pre-empt some answers:   I do have a Main-class: set, and it works fine. I've also set the classpath in the MANIFEST.MF, and that works fine too. I've found out how to use &lt;classpathPrefix&gt; and &lt;classpathMavenRepositoryLayout&gt; to make this work -- but only on my machine. (via: &lt;classpathPrefix&gt;${settings.localRepository}&lt;/classpathPrefix&gt;)

Debian users have a kind of "wayback machine":  , which is really great.  There are regressions sometimes, and if I don't have local deb package with old version, I'm getting sad sometimes. Having a wayback machine like this is very helpful.  I can't find analogue of it for Ubuntu. Have I missed it?

How do I get my project's runtime dependencies copied into the target/lib folder?    As it is right now, after mvn clean install the target folder contains only my project's jar, but none of the runtime dependencies.

I wish to store a few folders in a zip file and then convert that zip file into a jar.  I have the following folders : META-INF and org.  I tried the following command:  zip META-INF/ org/ wordcount.zip   But wordcount.zip was not created.

I always asked myself if it would be possible to make a Java to C++ converter.  Maybe a tool that converts the Java syntax to the C++ syntax?  I am aware that the languages differ, but simple things like loops where the semantics match 1 to 1.  Is there such a tool? Or is it possible to make one?

I want to install Java JRE 1.4.2 or JDK 1.4.2 on a recent Amazon Linux server. The best option so far seems to install from source. However - where can I download this? I believe 1.4 is still from the Sun era, but I can't find it on the  site, and the sun site is gone.  has no 1.4 download afaik.   Where can I download Java 1.4.2 source code?   As the goal is to get the installation working, other options are welcome. I tried to install the bin file, but got an error: cannot execute binary file.

Hello i wanted to know how can get Ubuntu source code and compile it on my own .  Basically i wanted to give it a try so can some one help me regarding the steps to compile a full Ubuntu system .  Also would this be beneficial as compared to installing from per-compiled binary?

I have a Java program that I'd like to daemonize on a linux system. In other words, I want to start running it in a shell and have it continue running after I've logged out. I also want to be able to stop the program cleanly.  I found  which uses a combination of shell scripting and Java code to do the trick. It looks good, but I'd like something simpler, if possible.  What's your preferred method to daemonize a Java program on a Linux system?

Is there a way to deploy a Java program in a format that is not reverse-engineerable?   I know how to convert my application into an executable JAR file, but I want to make sure that the code cannot be reverse engineered, or at least, not easily.   Obfuscation of the source code doesn't count... it makes it harder to understand the code, but does not hide it.  A related question is     Once I've completed the program, I would still have access to the original source, so maintaining the application would not be the problem. If the application is distributed, I would not want any of the users to be able to decompile it. Obfuscation does not achieve this as the users would still be able to decompile it, and while they would have difficulty following the action flows, they would be able to see the code, and potentially take information out of it.  What I'm concerned about is if there is any information in the code relating to remote access. There is a host to which the application connects using a user-id and password provided by the user. Is there a way to hide the host's address from the user, if that address is located inside the source code?

Is there any software like unetbootin in Ubuntu?  I cant install or run unetbootin-494 even though I already set it to allow executing files as programs.
