Java Web Start Technology and Application Clients in the GlassFish Application Server
Overview With the Sun Java System Application Server or its open source counterpart, the GlassFish application server, the end users can download a Java EE application client that one has built, along with any JARs it needs, and run the application client with a single mouse click. To make this capability available, the programmer does not need to develop the application differently or distribute any files to end-user systems themselves. Launching application clients with Java Web Start software overcomes the distribution problems that have historically impeded widespread use of application clients. The GlassFish application server provides Java Web Start support automatically, providing the feature without any extra effort from the user as a developer or administrator.
