Hi I have been having problems with this on both netbeans and eclipse even with a simple file that displays a jframe with a jlabel on it. My netbeans's project properties clearly sets testing2.hihi as my Main class and I have clean and build it which produces a .jar file in my dist folder. When I double click on it, it gives me the message" could not find the main class. Program will exit." However, if I choose to run it from the command prompt "java -jar hello2.jar" it will run as normal! Can anyone help me with this? Thanks alot!
package testing2;
public class hihi extends javax.swing.JFrame {
/**
* Creates new form hihi
*/
