Eclipse - Exporting Runnable JAR File (alert popup)

Question

I'm totally misunderstanding something about exporting a project to a JAR.

2 things are happening.

First, I get an alert while exporting the Runnable JAR File:

Exported with compile warnings: prj.Resources/classes/Person.java

My Project is called prj.HelloWorld . The main function resides here. It is also referencing another projects resources, which happens to be prj.Resources . (I added that project to the Java Build Path for prj.HelloWorld )

So, the Person.java class is performing just fine, but I still get the compile warning. What does that warning mean?

Second, when I double-click my helloworld.jar file, which I saved to my desktop, I don't see any images in the MenuBar Items. I'm calling icons from within both projects. When I run the compiler from inside Eclipse, everything shows fine.

-As I'm exporting the Runnable JAR File, I'm selecting the " Extract required libraries into generated JAR ", under the Library handling option.

What am I doing wrong, with images?

Answer 1

Window -> Show View -> Problems

This will open up a view which will show any problems in the program. Warnings are not critical, but notices of possibly deprecated functions and other things that should be changed.

Answer 2

The images are in wrong place/folder so that eclipse ignore them during the build process. If you don't have this folder( src/resources ) try to create it and put your images in it
