Hello,
I am very new to Mac OS X. But I have developed an executable Java (jar) app that launches fine from Terminal using 'open' or 'java -jar' command, or when double-clicked in desktop.
However, I need to make this jar app start at login time. I looked at StartupItems directory but it didn't work. I am even sure if this is the right location for making jar files to launch.
Could somebody please give me a hint on what directory I should use so this jar file would launch automatically at login?
P.S. It is important for me to know the absolute path where I can place this jar for autolaunch (not from the GUI features) because I'll later be doing File I/O in there.
Thank you so much,
Victor.
