How to create a standalone executable program from processing
I was wondering how to create a stand along executable file from processing. When I export an application from processing, I still cant run it without using processing. I've seen on other forums the suggestion of using exej4 and such programs to convert files into executable, but I am unsure how to use them. I'm a very noob programmer and a step by step instruction on how to create a stand alone executable program from a sketch would be quite helpful, even if it is using external programs.

which version? which operating system?
I'm using windows 8, processing version 2.1
Upgrade to 2.1.1
And you don't need to reject (or accept) answers, you can ignore the nagging dialog.
Keep in mind that the executable Processing puts out can only be run on your current system, and it's not even a single file for Windows.
You can indeed use exe4j or launch4j, but they both only output Windows executables. Alternatively, JWrapper outputs executables for Windows, Mac, and Linux. I would suggest checking out the documentation for whichever executable wrapper you choose, they'll have more specific information than we can give you.
