Help deploying applet for novices 2005-08-01 - By Lisa N. Michaud
Back Hi -
My summer research student and I are novices with Java, but unfortunately, we're now among the most experienced people at the College, so we have no one to go to with this rather profoundly "stupid question" :
(Background information:) We have been developing an applet that uses JConnector to interface with a DB. Hosting the applet and the DB server on the same machine is not a problem. Up until now, we have been testing the applet within our IDE (Eclipse) locally on our development machines, but now we are a month from this applet being used by a larger audience and we need to start testing it being hosted elsewhere.
Our question is: When we create the JAR file for the applet, how do we package up the JConnector JAR along with it? Right now, we keep creating JAR files that immediately raise an exception saying that the driver can't be found, which makes sense. However, we were operating under the assumption that the JConnector stuff could be deployed on the server along with our applet - we don't want the client users to have to install it!
Someone have pity on us for our cluelessness -
THANKS!
