Will compiled Windows .exe, whenever is gets released, require 1.6? (I have A LOT of stuff running that relies on java, and so I can’t update JRE 1.5 to JDK 1.6 latest just for jbidwatcher.)
I’m hoping it doesn’t, cuz I really like this app. If not, then I have to ask — and I hope this doesn’t sound whiney — why JDK 1.6? is there something in 1.6 that you really need? Are you compiling with 1.6 JDK just because it’s there? I mean, what ever happened to least-common-denominator? ;)

on winXP, for avoiding Error from Java Virtual Machine Launcher: “Could not find the main class.”, use the following command :
>
>C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02\bin\javaw.exe -jar jbidwatcher.jar

Same error. Note that I don’t have any trouble with 1.0.1—when I download JBidWatcher-1.0.1.jar, I can start it fine by either saving it and double clicking, run it directly from the download, or by the command above.

Hans,

one more thing: I’ve tested the .jar on Linux only, no idea if it works on Mac and the other operating system as well ;-)

The hacked .jar won’t open on Windows either. Error from Java Virtual Machine Launcher: “Could not find the main class.”
