3Executable files that work on desktop aren't the same as files that work "on mobile" (which mobile?). Do a google search of "netbeans export runnable jar" for more information. – Kevin Workman Apr 09 '14 at 13:16

You can run jar file in case its manifest contains proper reference to class with main()
function using command java -jar jarfile.jar
. If you need Windows executable, you can use launch4j. For Android AFAIK you need to build apk
file.

To execute java class, you need to do the following: 1. `public static void main(String[] args)` in your class; 2. Compile your class using command `javac Classname.java`; 3. Execute your class using command `java Classname`; – Alexey Malev Apr 09 '14 at 13:28
