      java version "1.3.0rc1"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0rc1-T)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.0rc1-S, mixed mode)

      This bug is related to the bug #4232896 but not the same.

      Since the JDK1.3RC1 The Java Virtual Machine Launcher show a pop up dialog when
      you do "javaw pkg.noexits".
      But if you type "javaw -jar" that should generate an error, you have no dialog.

      Here is the cases to treat (I'm not an English native speaker)
      javaw -jar noexits.jar : should show a dialog "Could not find the jar file.
        Program will exit!"

      in the jre\lib directory : javaw -jar rt.jar or double-click on this file in
      explorer on the rt.jar : should show a dialog "Could not find the Main-Class in
      the manifest. Program will exit!" or something more understable for the normal
      Windows users.

      E-mail me if you want more informations.
