Compiling Java code into an executable application

[lalalala]

Hi,
I have created an inventory program on java and I was wondering if
anyone could guide me in compiling my java code into an active applet
that can be opened within windows, rather than having to run the
program from the java editor.

You can run java programs from the command line. "java MyMainClass" is the
syntax. Google around to see how to do this.

If the question you're asking is how to compile to code into a native
executable, then google "java compiler". There are lots of them. Also check
Roedy Green's java glossary.

"Active applet?"

Do you mean that explicitly, or are you perhaps abusing the jargon a bit?

There are solutions for compiling java, and ways to deliver a java
application that make it more convenient for the user to run. What is
your motivation for this? Is one of your goals to hide your
implementation from your user? Or are you only trying to make it
conveniently packaged?

For starters, google for "difference between java application and
applet" or similar phrase (in quotes!)

An "applet" is something you'd expect to encounter in browsers, so I'm
guessing you're looking for a way to create a standalone application.

In that case, have a look at JavaLauncher:

..exe file.
