hi

how or with what to run *.jar file ?

thank's in advance

Answer 1

Use:

 java -jar <<jarfile>>

Answer 2

You should just be able to run it like so:

java -jar <jar file>

This assumes that java is in your path and that the jar file is in the current directory. Otherwise you will have to fully specify the paths.

Answer 3

JAR files are Java ARchives. Run them as follows:

java -jar jarfile

You can download Java from here (it is a free download):
