I can't create Windows software through Eclipse. Using "Run" does run the app as it should, but I would like to start it without Eclipse, preferably as an independent Windows app, using a mere double-click. Although  suggests several approaches, they all require additional knowledge that I do not posses.  I have tried using Launch4J but it also requires additional knowledge. I am astounded that it is so difficult to create a simple Windows-Java-app.  EDIT I am using this pom.xml:  &lt;project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"&gt;  &lt;modelVersion&gt;4.0.0&lt;/modelVersion&gt; &lt;groupId&gt;foo&lt;/groupId&gt; &lt;artifactId&gt;bar&lt;/artifactId&gt; &lt;version&gt;1.0.0&lt;/version&gt; &lt;name&gt;baz&lt;/name&gt; &lt;description&gt;&lt;/description&gt;  &lt;dependencies&gt; &lt;/dependencies&gt;  &lt;build&gt;     &lt;plugins&gt;         &lt;plugin&gt;             &lt;groupId&gt;com.zenjava&lt;/groupId&gt;             &lt;artifactId&gt;javafx-maven-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;             &lt;version&gt;8.8.3&lt;/version&gt;             &lt;configuration&gt;                 &lt;mainClass&gt;application.Main&lt;/mainClass&gt;                 &lt;updateExistingJar&gt;true&lt;/updateExistingJar&gt;                 &lt;skipCopyingDependencies&gt;true&lt;/skipCopyingDependencies&gt;                 &lt;useLibFolderContentForManifestClasspath&gt;true&lt;/useLibFolderContentForManifestClasspath&gt;             &lt;/configuration&gt;             &lt;executions&gt;                 &lt;execution&gt;                     &lt;phase&gt;package&lt;/phase&gt;                     &lt;goals&gt;                         &lt;goal&gt;build-jar&lt;/goal&gt;                     &lt;/goals&gt;                 &lt;/execution&gt;             &lt;/executions&gt;         &lt;/plugin&gt;         &lt;plugin&gt;             &lt;groupId&gt;org.apache.maven.plugins&lt;/groupId&gt;             &lt;artifactId&gt;maven-compiler-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;             &lt;version&gt;3.5.1&lt;/version&gt;             &lt;configuration&gt;                 &lt;source&gt;1.8&lt;/source&gt;                 &lt;target&gt;1.8&lt;/target&gt;             &lt;/configuration&gt;         &lt;/plugin&gt;     &lt;/plugins&gt; &lt;/build&gt; &lt;/project&gt;   But Eclipse gives this error message:  Failed to execute goal com.zenjava:javafx-maven-plugin:8.8.3:build-jar   the goal being  clean compile package -e   Maven is installed, trying to run it with minimal appendancies.
If I have a Java source file (*.java) or a class file (*.class), how can I convert it to a .exe file?  I also need an installer for my program.
If n is such that every element $(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})^{\times}$ is a root of $x^2-1$. Prove that $n$ divides 24. Do inequalities hold under differentiation? If I have the inequality $f \leq g$, does this imply $f'\leq g'$?  The reason I am asking is because I am using this fact to prove a question with Taylor theorem. Implementation of "show" for function Apart from testing it myself, I've seen a few posts  and , including from Sketchup users like me, sort of circle around this topic but never ask this question directly. How can I overcome these problems in DupliGroups or Collection Instances?  moving its origin seems to require moving to World origin (and using up a layer for clarity) &lt;=&gt; linked meshes have their own local origin which I can move data around in Edit Mode (easy enough)  It is impractical to link up DupliGroup data to previously created meshes because the origin mismatch as above, and the mesh data that remains in it and needs to be deleted somehow  Linked meshes don't have the above two problems (can be 'blocked in' and then detailed up all at once) but I can't add objects to them, only faces. Say I'd like to add handles as linked meshes, because handles are used elsewhere in the model too.    How feasible would it be to make a linked object type with deeper hierarchy? Say an object that would look at its children and simply make every other instance have the same children. It would also mean dragging and dropping in outliner would be the simplest way to manage it by the looks of it. It seems to me that the terms "Teaching Assistant" and "Instructor" refer to a variety of positions. At some places, a teaching assistant is responsible for things like helping the actual lecturer by handing out papers, grading homework, etc., and instructors hold recitation sessions.  At other places, I saw the term "instructor" referring to the lecturer giving the course, while a teaching assistant is the person doing anything else (recitations, grading etc.).  Is there some widely accepted definition of the two positions?  For context: The question arose because I wasn't sure whether I'm using the correct terms in my CV -- I am a math graduate student, and I would like to make a distinction between jobs in which I only graded course assignments/final exams, and courses in which I held recitation classes* (and also participated in grading the final exams). Is it OK to use "Instructor" for the latter? What should the former be referred to as?  *In the course I'm currently teaching, the recitations are planned and written by the ones giving them (without the professors' supervision). Also, the people giving the recitations are not necessarily grad students (some already hold a PhD). I'm elaborating on that because from what I've seen, some of it could be relevant for the definition of the job. WMS and WFS queries needs SRS and BBOX parameters.  http://example.com/geoserver/wfs?   service=WFS&amp;   version=2.0.0&amp;   request=GetFeature&amp;   typeNames=namespace:featuretype&amp;   srsName=CRS&amp;   bbox=a1,b1,a2,b2&amp;   For example I have GeoServer to publish WFS. My data SRS is EPSG:4326 and my map SRS is EPSG:3857. So I send a WFS query.  http://example.com/geoserver/wfs?   service=WFS&amp;   version=2.0.0&amp;   request=GetFeature&amp;   typeNames=namespace:featuretype&amp;   srsName=EPSG:3857&amp;   bbox=978393.9621,2680799.4560,-430493.3433,3326539.4710&amp;   Does GeoServer or ArcGIS server give an error? Because my data has EPSG:4326 . Or does GeoServer convert these coordinates internally and find data and send me as EPSG:3857 I can think of three general ways of explaining why the universe contains more matter than antimatter:  (1) Near the Planck time, the universe had zero baryon asymmetry, but at some later time, determined by some GUT energy scale, the  were satisfied, and the baryon asymmetry became nonzero.  (2) Nonconservation of baryon number occurs only at Planckian energies. Near the Planck time, the baryon asymmetry evolved from zero to some nonzero value.  (3) The Sakharov conditions have never been satisfied. The baryon asymmetry has always been nonzero, and has simply scaled as expected. (Apparently one  $\Delta n=n_B-n_\bar{B}\propto s$, where $n$ is number density and $s$ is entropy density).  It seems like most theorists are interested in #1, but is there any reason why 2 and 3 aren't possible?  2 seems pretty reasonable, since for the reasons given in , we have good reasons to think that baryon number is not conserved under Planckian conditions.  3 also seems reasonable to me, since even if baryon number is nonconserved at Planckian energies, that's only one of the three Sakharov conditions. I don't see any obvious fine-tuning objections to #3, since the scaling of baryon asymmetry with cosmological expansion isn't particularly drastic (not an exponential decay or anything). Is there something unphysical about maintaining $\Delta n\propto s$ all the way back to the Planckian era?   Some people might object to #3 on aesthetic grounds, since we "expect" the initial conditions of the universe to be symmetric, but that seems weak to me. After all, we don't object aesthetically to the fact that homogeneity was an imperfect symmetry of the early universe, and we even accept that the early universe was in a thermodynamically unlikely state. My multiple regression analysis model has a statistically significant F value however all beta values are statistically non-significant.   All the regression assumptions are met. No multicollinearity was found. Correlations among all predictors are all less than 0.60.   What else might be the cause of the insignificant predictors? C# Regular Expressions with \Uxxxxxxxx characters in the pattern So I understand what a static method or field is, I am just wondering when to use them. That is, when writing code what design lends itself to using static methods and fields.   One common pattern is to use static methods as a static factory, but this could just as easily be done by overloading a constructor. Correct? For example:  var bmp = System.Drawing.Bitmap.LoadFromFile("Image01.jpg");   As for static fields, is creating singelton-objects their best use? When I use \listoftables and \listoffigures I get in the list long captions that appear next to the tables/figures.  I would like to use short captions for this list which summarize these captions. Is that common to do? If so, what is one way to do it? In the absence of a signal handler, does SIGTERM behave identically to SIGKILL? Callback animation to begin only after ALL children have finished animating What is the difference between weight and mass? "How to format" block mentions syntax highlighting even if it is not available on the site When you edit the body of a post, the "How to Format" widget is shown in the right sidebar. It mentions the syntax highlighting function, even on  like :    It's probably also a good idea to move the part about code fences down for non-technical sites (like ); other formatting options are more important there. Consider this example from the Rogue class traits:     Trained Skills: Stealth and Thievery. From the class skills list below, choose four more trained skills at 1st level.   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Class Skills: Acrobatics (Dex), Athletics (Str), Bluff (Cha), Dungeoneering (Wis), Insight (Wis), Intimidate (Cha), Perception (Wis), Stealth (Dex), Streetwise (Cha), Thievery (Dex)   The Rogue is trained in Stealth and Thievery. However, they're also included in the Class Skills section, and it invites you to: 'choose four more trained skills' from that list. This seems to be similar for all the classes.  So can you train Stealth and Thievery as a choice as well have it initially trained or the equivalent for other classes? Why can a function modify some arguments as perceived by the caller, but not others? I'd like to know your opinion on citations in abstracts. At my university, there is no rule on that matter so it's basically a question of preference.  Do you think it's okay to have citations in an abstract or do you  personally prefer to have the abstract be a ``stand-alone'' piece of  work? How to make Gnome's "Activities" bar always visible? I just installed Gnome, and when I click on "Activities" a convenient bar shows up from the left, allowing me to switch to other applications. Unfortunately, the bar hides as soon as I choose an application.  How to make this bar always visible? There appears to be a poltergeist in my speakers (no, really) I've no idea if there's a suitable Stack Exchange for poltergeists. It appears to be software, hardware or virus related, so I thought I'd try here, seeing as Ghostbusters is just a film, so I can't call them.  I'm not going mad, and this isn't a joke.  There's what appears to be a radio stream coming out of my speakers, except I can only hear it when the volume knob is turned down to the min setting whilst the speakers are on, which makes no sense. Sometimes it's French, which also makes little to no sense.  The speakers are Logitech 5.1s, I forget the model number, and I'm running XP 64bit. If that makes a difference.  I'd suspect it could be some sort of crazy virus, but I've been randomly killing processes whilst the poltergeist is active and it hasn't killed it, so I'm not sure about that.  Once again, I'm perfectly sane and this really isn't a joke. Perhaps other people have had this problem but have been too afraid of the reaction to ask anyone (please don't have me committed to an insane asylum).  Googling for strange noises coming from speakers didn't really get me anywhere. Has anyone heard of a virus that can do this and affect the volume controls on the hardware in that way?
