You could put your exe into a jar file, then have a Java class to extract it
:-)
What do you plan to compile Java into an .exe with? You ought to check
whether the native compiler is actually capable of compiling your "rich java
client". It seems to me that Sun licensing prevents you from passing their
supplied class libraries through a native compiler, so your compiler vendor
must supply reimplementations of those standard Java class libraries that
your application uses. Unless the native compiler vendor has a deal with
Sun of course.
For software deployment of exe's, see
