Moving java app from devt. to prod.

Hi,
I have developed a simple java application under the
development environment (WIN NT).
What steps do I have to go through to install this application in another isolated computer ?
Is it just a matter of moving all application.class
files to a directory on the new computer?
How would I ensure the JVM is set up to run ?

Thanks

If your app is big and needs lot of configuration, you can go for a free java installer available in freeware and use it for packaging your app. Or else you can go for InstallShield for Java for having a commercial outlook of your app.

I have jre115.exe for WinNT. Can I just install this on the prod. machine and set up the CLASSPATH ? If not, do you have the
URL for the free java installer to try out ?

Thanks.
You can certainly install it yourself and set the CLASSPATH using the System icon on the Control Panel.
here is one such free installer
