What Java IDE do you use? Eclipse and Netbeans should allow you to do this, either with built-in IDE features, or using integration with third party tools such as ANT. 

Netbeans example: http://wiki.netbeans.org/PackagingADistributableJavaApp

Eclipse example:

This resource shows use of the Java JAR command line tool:
