Launching Java from CD?

Newbie & Debugging Questions
#1

Hi,

is it possible to launch a Java app/game directly from CD/DVD even when no JRE is installed locally? The CD-rom would include a JRE of course but it would be not installed on the system.

I would like to ship a CD with a Java app which can be started from the CD without the need to install anything.

Is that possible?
Thanks

Yes. It’s fairly trivial to do. Just bung bin and lib dirs on and write a wee launcher executable.
Or molebox the whole lot! Molebox rocks. I might change my sig and put that in there.

I’ve used this program for making executables: http://jsmooth.sourceforge.net/
