Launch4j Executable Wrapper 3.0 pre-1

Launch4j is a cross-platform tool for wrapping Java applications distributed as jars in lightweight Windows native executables.
The executable can be configured to search for a certain JRE version or use a bundled one, and its possible to set runtime options, like the initial/max heap size.
The wrapper also offers better user experience through an application icon, a native pre-JRE splash screen, a custom process name, and a Java download page in case the appropriate JRE cannot be found.
Main features:
- Launch4j wraps jars in Windows native executables and allows to run them like a regular Windows program. Its possible to wrap applications on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and Solaris!
- Also creates launchers for jars and class files without wrapping.
- Supports executable jars and dynamic classpath resolution using environment variables and wildcards.
- Doesnt extract the jar from the executable.
- Custom application icon with multiple resolutions and color depths.
