Um, just go to
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/earlyAccess/java3D/
Download the installer and use that. There's no need to make
your own installer, so ignore all those responses talking about
WinZip vs. InstallShield. Making an installer is not trivial.
On the page cited above, J. Lee Dixon suggested creating a custom
installer to get around the problem that Java 3D 1.2 defaulted to the
Java 1.2 default directory. The 1.2.1 installers read the JRE & SDK
locations from the registry, so they will always install Java 3D in the
right place.
The hard part of the process is signing the JAR file, not creating
the installer.
More to follow on this subject. . .
