Newbie java packaging questions
 

Hi all,

I started my attempt at packaging josm. I have some question about it, I
hope someone here can help me out.
For compiling should I use ant or javac? Using ant gives me a .jar file,
if I compile that to binary format with gcj, how can I start it?
Is it preferred to have a jar file or to have the files separate?

Kind regards,

Sander

Build however the upstream project builds.

For simplicity, build against IcedTea first. Then if you're intent on
native compilation, have a look here:

A jar is preferred.
