It is also possible to execute Java classes from this panel. Here's what this feature's author Alex Bradley says:. This will run a user-specified class in the context of the installer JVM with a single method :.

In particular, it allows me to write a process extension and still be able to provide feedback to the user through the feedback panel, and to add new functionality to the installer, after its been built. This can be be used to run the job only if the pack is enabled. For example, the batch file will if either the Sources or Executables packs are selected at install time. Output that is written to the ProcessPanel's textarea can be duplicated in an optional logfile. The name of the logfile is not configurable but should fit in most cases.

ActionEvent; import java. ActionListener; import javax. JButton; import javax. JFrame; import javax. JPanel; import javax. New Properties for the build. Content for install. Code Explanation of the install. This information will be placed on the first panel HelloPanel of the installer if the gui version of the installer was executed. The underlying tags are self explanatory. The guiprefs tag defines the size in width and height and resizability of all the gui dialogs The locale tag specifies the language of the generated intaller text.

The resources tag defines all resources such an image or a text file to be imported to the installer. The panels tag defines which panels are shown by executing the installer. Using JWS you can put your application on a server along with a configuration file which says what version of the JVM it requires, what associated jar files it requires, and so on. The user clicks on a link which causes a download to start; this download ensures your machine has a suitable version of the JVM, downloads your application, and runs it.

It can optionally create links in the start menu and on the desktop, and it can also be configured to check for updates whenever somebody runs the application. After reading some forms related to it I was able to create a Installer.

But if you have some experience in using this tool then please tell me where to put my source code files which I have to install. Thanks again. Paul Sir,your suggestion seems to be interesting. I will Google it. Robbins Sir, One more this,IzPack only copies the file to the desired location. How it is installation? And if we have to create a shortcut etc? Can I suggest that you spend more than 15 minutes reading about the product before you start asking questions?

That one is pretty clearly answered or rather covered right at the beginning of the Java Web Start Guide. The purpose of documentation and tutorials is to impart useful information to people, so don't just throw that away.
