Publisher's description of Executor

From mpowers.net:

Create true Windows applications from your Java code by simply dragging a jar file to this Executor?s icon and it immediately creates an EXE file. This lets you distribute your Java apps as genuine Win32 binary executables. Strings within the Win32 app even let you customize the Java virtual machine created to run your application. You can pass arguments such as ""-verbose:gc"" or ""-Xprof"" or set runtime properties with the ""-D"" option. You can also pass arguments to your program that will be appended to arguments supplied by the user from the command line or drag-and-drop.

Cons: Some of the documentation for changing windows resources could be spruced up, and it took some digging to discover how to create an application icon for the executable that didn't cause the executable to crash. I found the companion program WinExecutor more usefull.

"students used successfully immediately"

Summary: I teach AP Computer Science, and my high school students adapted to the demo version of this product like a duck to water. The only issue was packaging a .jar file correctly in the first place, but that is not the province of this product.

"It Works"

Summary: My life would be a lot easier if all products worked as well as Executor. It's easy to use and fast.

If you're looking for a utilty to make an .exe out of your executable .jar, look no further.
