desktop offline softwareHow Java SE software can be deployed?

How can I deploy(install) Java Software made for desktop. It should be installed like other windows software and should have shortcuts in program file and desktop. I know Web Start for running application thorough internet (offline from cache).

And how to combine my software with Java Runtime such that, while installing it should check for presence of JRE, if it is not present JRE shoulddesktop offline software be installed automatically?
There are whole books written on this, a Sun tutorial and 3rd party commercial products. Only Java 6+ gives you capabilities to add buttons to the Start toolbar and as a Menu Item shortcut -- in other words, handles to the Desktop. On Linux, you use a shell script. Shell scripts are "naked" you can see the scripting. Windows needs an .exe and for that ydesktop offline softwareou need VisualStudio.

NetBeans has tutorials and a framework for an installer. The slickest installers I've seen are Sketsa SVG editor and Azereus torrent P2P program. in short, we will begin to see many java installer options -- IMHO.
