I was using IntelliJ IDEA IDE. I want to create a JAR file from Java compiled class files. But I didn't find a command or file.

Java Solutions

Solution 1 - Java

For Intellij IDEA version 11.0.2

File | Project Structure | Artifacts then you should press alt+insert or click the plus icon and create new artifact choose --> jar --> From modules with dependencies.

Next goto Build | Build artifacts --> choose your artifact.

Solution 2 - Java

You didn't specify your IDEA version. Before 9.0 use Build | Build Jars, in IDEA 9.0 use Project Structure | Artifacts.

Solution 3 - Java

In intellij8 I was using a specific plugin "Jar Tool" that is configurable and allows to pack a JAR archive.
