I started out by creating an installer using Install4j and then manually copying the launcher it created into an Application bundle template but it was incredibly fiddly and I ended up with a variety of indecipherable messages in the system error log.Įventually I realised that I didn’t need to create an installer and that what I actually wanted was a Mac OS X single bundle archive media file.Īfter I’d got install4j creating that for me I just needed to figure out how to create the background image telling the user to drag the application into their ‘Applications’ folder. I figured that bundling a JAR was probably a solved problem and had a look at App Bundler, JAR Bundler and Iceberg before settling on Install4j which we used for Neo4j desktop. ![]() I then worked my way through a video which walks you through bundling a JAR file in a Mac application. I started out learning about the structure of an application bundle which is well described in the Apple Bundle Programming guide.
