Jar Executable Files

I have been supplied with a digital log book for use this semester and it comes in the form of a .jar file and a .mdb file. I tried running it on my mac but it crashes every time but it seems to run perfectly on windows xp. Does anyone have any ideas why? I thought .jar files would be computable on any platform.

I think this might help you to get the JAR file running on your Mac

In fact, .jar is computable on any platform, but somethings, like path Directory and serial port access it OS dependent, so the programmer has to threat these situation to work as many platform as possible

Java is compatible on any platform but only when there is a Java Virtual Machine running on the platform. For example in Windows XP, to run java programs you need to setup Java Virtual Machine (JVM) can be found in Sun.com. There different types of JVM, find one which can run on Mac.

Good luck...

    locate their .java or .class file, which the GUI then launches. So my question is if I can launch
    this class as part of the GUI process so that the API actually is actually part of the GUI process.
    It's a bit backwards really - like launching the API first and then adding in the component that
    uses the API during runtime. But there is an advantage of doing it this w....
