Exporting jFreeChart jar with my project

[Ryan Thames]

Hey, I was wondering if you guys knew anything about this. I'm
exporting my project into a .jar file to turn into my instructor. The
problem is that I use jFreeChart extensively in my project, so it only
runs properly on my computer, where I have jFreeChart. Does anyone
know how to export jFreeChart and jCommon with my project when I
create my .jar file? I've been trying to do this using Eclipse and no
luck so far.

You have to add these jar with your distribution. Make sure your clients use
them. They have to be in the classpath.

I know this comes up all the time and I really hate giving this answer.

Sometimes you really want to distribute a self contained jar that has
everything you need to run an app, excluding the Java runtime.

It seems like there should be a simple way to do this.

There is one. Check out

http://one-jar.sourceforge.net/

and

http://fjep.sourceforge.net/ (if you're using Eclipse).
