[java] Server VM in Manifest?

biovenger · 2004-06-04T18:36:22

Hey, I always package my applications in jar files, having the Main-Class attribute allow for double-click execution. However, I wish to start my application with the server VM... Now this is a tiny problem. It can of course be fixed with a simple batch file on windows, but then I''d have to do the same thing for every other platform I want the game to be playable on. So I was wondering if there was any way to make the manifest know it should run the Server VM when doubleclicked?

The SDK comes with the server VM, but the regular JRE that people download from www.java.com doesn''t, because it''s supposed to be as small as possible. However, I think you should be allowed under the license to redistribute the server VM separately, to people who wish to use it.
