问题 I use a program called MSICREATE to generate msi packages for a piece of software. I then use orca to transform the msi package.

What property table entries are needed? ========= The answer given below has helped me get beyond

associate a custom file extension with my java program on windows

只谈情不闲聊 提交于 2019-12-24 08:19:12
问题 is there a way to associate a custom file extension with my java program on windows? I have installAnywhere to create an installer. But I'm not sure how this can be done if it's possible. Every installer on window does this, but what if it's in Java. I imagine it would require registry modification by the installer... 回答1: Take a look at Launch4j. It allows you to wrap your java application into a native Windows .exe file, with which it should be trivial to associate a custom file extension.
