Apple's Jar Bundler utility is now pretty much discontinued it seems. I have an executable JAR file that I would simply like to wrap in an app bundle with an icon. I created a console application in Xcode (C++), and was able to run the JAR with an absolute directory by simply using the system(constant char*). However, I don't know how to run a JAR bundled within the app. In the project's main folder, I have main.cpp and my JAR--how can I execute it? The language doesn't matter to me; I'll happily throw out main.cpp for a Swift or Objective-C file.

  • @jdv I don't know how to use Gradle or Maven but I suppose I will learn one of them if I can't get an answer to my question. – Sam Claus Oct 16 '15 at 20:20

    There are a few different native launchers for Java out there. "osxappbundle" seems to be the one all the cool kids are using for OS X. –  Oct 16 '15 at 20:23
