Hey everyone,

I want to make Jar Applications, but I dont want to install Java.

Now I thought: Can't i make a runnable jar File, put the JDK Directory to it, and make e.g. a Batch File wich starts it?

In CMD the command java -jar file.jar works only if Java is installed, but can't I manually say were java is?

And I dont want to make the Path Variable to java Confused
