Frequently supplying the name of the main class is sufficient to generate a complete archive. If the project contains more than one, the plugin can present a list of main classes. Click on "Select a main class" and select one.

Class names may contain wildcards ? and * in their last components. In this case all classes matching the pattern are looked up and inserted. For example, the expression a.b.* will copy all classes belonging to the package a.b. A recursive form a.b.**.class is also possible. This would mean that all classes from package a.b and all its subpackages are copied.

(3) In case you don't want to transfer classes from certain sources, you can enter the appropriate prefixes here. If Autojar finds a file in a base (i.e., directory or archive from the class path), it checks if the path of that base starts with any of these prefixes. If it does, the class is skipped.

Either enter a prefix in the input field and click on "add", or click on "..." to start a file selection dialog. The selected directory or archive will be used as prefix. Items can be removed from the list by selecting them and clicking on "remove".
