How to create .exe file of the java program you create?
Please support our Java advertiser: Programming Forums - DaniWeb Sister Site

This sounds absurd to some developers here cause you'll say just create jar file and distributre to usr but sometimes there is not possiblity of having runtime environment in windows computers.So if we can bundle the enviroment and the setup together then packing into exe and then distribute like most of commercial java application sounds better.But the problem is how to do that?
Ok creating exe will increase the size but that doesn't matter,if there is any freeware tool to accomplish just that?

Use something like IzPack (http://izpack.org/) to create an installer can install the JRE if necessary.
There is just NO valid reason to think you absolutely have to create an exe for a Java app. You are much better off with an executable jar file.

Executable Jar file can be good but what if want to bundle jar file and runtime environment together.Also Want to check if there is any JRE available before installing it.

And I already told you to use IzPack or something like it if you need to create an installer - which will do exactly what you are asking for.
