When I build the project in NetBeans it shows in lib folder these libraries

client-combined-3.141.59.jar
client-combined-3.141.59-sources.jar
commons-exec-1.3.jar
cryptolens.jar
guava-25.0-jre.jar
okhttp-3.11.0.jar
okio-1.14.0.jar

so whenever I want to move the project I need to copy them with it! How can I merge them into the main jar application?

  • The problem in this particular case is that your current project might not be a Maven one. In this case, you can add a custom target to your Ant build file. That's covered [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2212913/netbeans-deploying-all-in-one-jar) If I were using Netbeans now, I'd probably always choose a Maven build. Although I liked Ant, I'm afraid it was always rendered write-only (much like a wizard GUI builder) by Netbeans. – g00se Jul 10 '21 at 11:01
  • It might be safer to just start again and move your source over into a new Maven project and use Shade. – g00se Jul 10 '21 at 11:09

It is so simple.

  1. Just rename the .jar file (the main jar) to .zip file (if you use windows 7 you can't do this you need to use git terminal or cmd to do that)
  2. Copy lib folder and open .zip file (main jar)
  3. Paste it
  4. Rename the main jar to name.jar file
