I tried to make a jar file of my program using Netbeans IDE 7.0, but after I build the project and run the jar file I got this message : "Could not find the main class, Program will exit"

And so I decided to run it in cmd to see what's the problem:

<code>
C:\Users\user>java -jar "C:\Users\user\Documents\NetBeansProjects\PictureSliderG
ame\dist\PictureSliderGame.jar"
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: pictureslidergame/Pic
tureSliderGame
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: pictureslidergame.PictureSliderGame

at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202)
at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:190)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306)

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247)
Could not find the main class: pictureslidergame.PictureSliderGame. Program will
exit.</code>

could somebody please explain to me where I gone wrong? thanks in advance.

Looks like the jar has not been built properly. Are you sure there are no compilation errors before you try to build it?

Strange. I've never seen anything building properly and then running wrongly. Can you open a command prompt, run the command below and attach the file PictureSliderGame.zip to this question

jar cfM PictureSliderGame.zip -C C:\Users\user\Documents\NetBeansProjects PictureSliderGame

Never rely on an IDE to generate .jar
They might have pecky reaction based on the ast main() run
put that one in you Favorites
