The sad truth is:
We could only repeat the things, already written in lots of documents - preferably found on the sun site, but you would have to read it, try and understand it though.
If there are specific questions left, you may ask again.
Perhaps
you should start with building jars and the command
jar -h, which is useful to know, and independent solvable from the rest of the problem.
You know the old strategy in problem solving: divide et impera!
And in my opinion, without knowing jar, you shouldn't even think of posting to 'advanced'.
