How To Make A Executable File From Your Java Code

Chances are that we coded java for the semester end project and never really looked backed at it like making a executable file of it. As it is also not on the course syllabus people don’t tend to give it a try. So I’m here to tell my experience in making a windows executable file with a straightforward simple guide.

Before you go through this guide, you must already have initialized JDK and JRE path and installed Eclipse with a sample project with it.
