Run Java EE Application client

Question

How to run a Java EE desktop application client outside Netbeans?

If I double click jar , it says "java exception". All (client, ejb and web ) modules are deployed, and glassfish and desktop client jar are on same machine (Windows).

I've follwed this tut http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/1.2.1/devguide/html/Client3.html

and when I run runclient -client ConverterApp.ear -name MyConverterClient in cmd it says runclient unknown command.

Answer 1

Java application can be executed using java virtual machine as following:

java -cp yourjar.jar YourMainClass`

If your main class belongs to package you should write something like the following:

java -cp yourjar.jar com.mycompany.YourMainClass`

I hope this helps although I do not really understand what does "Java EE desktop application client" mean. I hope this aa kind of java application that connects to your Java EE backend.
