I am export jar file now Right click on Project folder and select export then select JAR like this way.But i feel to difficult every day using like this.
So Can you please suggest me any shortcut key for export jar file in eclipse.

At present, there is no predefined keyboard shortcut for exporting Jar.
Solution
Add a custom shortcut in Windows->Preferences->General->Keys by defining a Custom key binding
All the Eclipse commands and their associated shortcut keys are displayed here. You can use the predefined ones or assign/change new shortcuts here.
After assigning the shortcut, it will show the user defined key binding.
For me it shows my custom combination Ctrl + Alt + R as follows:

Is there a way to create package-info.java for existing packages in one move in eclipse?

I have some legacy packages which doesn't have package-info.java. For some reason I need to create package-info.javas for them and I found the task really boring because there is no shortcut in eclipse for me to do that. I have to manually use the New > File procedure to create the file, then manually type in those package names.
Is there a shortcut in eclipse for such task?
It's counter-intuitive, but Eclipse's "New Java Package" dialog with its option to create a package-info.java works for existing packages, too.
Just right-click the existing package, select New > Package, and leave everything except the "Create package-info.java" checkbox unchanged.
This will produce a package-info.java that's pre-populated with the correct package name and an empty javadoc comment block (possibly with #author tags and similar default content depending on your settings). Works even if you don't have an existing file to copy from. Tested with Eclipse Oxygen.
There is no easy way to do this as far as I know, at least "the right way."
What you can do as a shortcut is right-click package-info.java and click "Copy." Then you can use the keyboard shortcut to paste the package-info.java in any package. Eclipse automatically changes the package org.whatever.pkgname; command to match the package you paste the java file into.

Disable key bindings in eclipse

I have defined my own project nature in eclipse. This project has a specific file. For this file type I want to disable copy paste. I have already removed copy and Paste options from context menu of the file by using eclipse Activity-Pattern binding. But, still the user can do Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V from keyboard to achieve the same. Is there any way I can disable these predefined key bindings in eclipse. I would like to define such a functionality in my plugin.xml. Please help.

Converting java files to an executable file for a 1st timer

I have seen other posts about this but I honestly don't know what to do with that information. Can someone explain to me what exactly I need to do please?
I'm using JCreator
With JCreator you can follow the below process.
Click on Configure/Options.
Click on Tools in the left column.
Click New, and choose Create Jar file.
Click on the newly created entry Create Jar File in the left column under Tools.
Edit the middle line labeled Arguments: it should have
cvfm $[PrjName].jar manifest.txt *.class
Click OK.
For more information you can refer this article
Assuming you are using eclipse: Right Click on your project->Export:
Export it as an executable JAR. That will allow you to run your program directly from that jar file.
It really comes down to what IDE your using, some have that ability, directly under the menu "file" or "project", where you can them select "export as". Some IDEs however, do not have that ability and only allow you to export as a jar file. If that's the case, you need a third party software to do that for you.
An IDE is the platform you are using to debug your code.

Exporting Jar files

I am using Eclipse & have some packages that I want to export into a JAR file (not a runnable ones). I just need it so I can import it into another Java project to use the classes.
When I exported them, most of the packages are exported but there are a few packages that appears to be empty. I've selected Export generated class files and resources and Export Java source files and resources. I also tried changing the option here and there just to figure it out but it still gives me the same results.
Is there a configuration that I missed?
You would probably be better off reusing Clean way to combine multiple jars? Preferably using Ant (that's what Eclipse is trying to do, under the scenes).
When you right click on a project, then pick Export ... you can in the following menu choose Export as Java>JAR File.
Then a menu should pop up, which lets you exactly choose from a list which folders/files you want to export into the JAR. (On the left, as Select the resources to export.)
For exporting...
1. Goto File -> Export.
2. Under 'General' category select 'Archive File'.
3. Give name and path for where to save the archive.
For importing...
1. Goto File -> Import.
2. Under 'General' category select 'Archive File'.
3. Browse the exported archive.
