B4J Question manifest file and the libs folder

The manifest file is created automatically. You should see a message such as this one in the compilation window:
The following libraries should be distributed in the libs folder:
jCore.jar jFX.jar CSSUtils.jar JavaObject.jar Json.jar

The mentioned libraries should be copied to a folder named libs:
YourJar.jar
libs
--- All libraires here

Hi Erel

Thanks for the info, I have done as you suggested, when I run the jar file (GUI app) no GUI loads, when it is run within the IDE it loads. Am I missing something basic ?

My plan is to have a common folder with all the libs required by all our new server apps (each server app has a GUI mnager), I wll be suing inno setup for the install and hopefully use the -cp (classpath) in the apps so there point to the common lib folder.

This is possible ?

Run it from the command line with java -jar. It will allow you to see the logs.

If you use package manager then it will be easier to merge the libraries though I don't see any reason to use it for your own deployments.
