Package Libraries in JAR

[Zack]

Note: Working with an Applet.

I have a group of libraries (LWJGL) that are stored in a specific location on my harddrive. In NetBeans, I have included these libraries in my project, and I can view the Applet in NetBeans, with all the libraries included. But when I compile it for use in a browser, it only compiles MY source files into the JAR. If I attempt to place the library JARs in the same folder, and include them (using archive="jar1.jar,jar2.jar,etc."), errors (posted below) come up about security, and it gives up.

So, I think the ideal solution here is for everything to be compiled into the one JAR file; however, I can't seem to get NetBeans to do this. Suggestions?

Errors:

I would tend to go with the multiple jar approach.

Perhaps the library code actually needs enhanced permissions. You could verify this by creating a single jar archive by hand - I'm guessing you'll see the same error. (but will be glad if I'm wrong)

Yeah, I think you're right. I'll probably set up an AppletLoader instead. Thanks!
