Creating an installer with Java-17 JPackage [closed]

Question

I believe I am missing something, but since I am quite new to this jpackage I just don't know how to get it resolved. The following is the structure of the app.

I want to try running this on the terminal just to see whether it will execute well. What I am getting from the netbeans ant is to try the following;

But then I am getting error with this. Any ideas, I know I am not doing something right. Please I will appreciate any help.

Answer 1

Have a look here: https://github.com/dlemmermann/JPackageScriptFX The non-modular approach to use jlink/jpackage described there will also work in your case. I use it, e.g., to include SQLight-JDBC which also includes native libraries.
