Good morning, in these last days and worked on my reports made Ireport successfully, now I want to make an executable to not open Ireport every time you want to generate the report. I have searched the internet how to do it, but I can not find the solution. Likewise I have some doubts that I hope you can solve me.
1.- Is it correct that the executable is a file.jar?
2.- Is there another type of executable? .exe for example?
3.- What step should I follow to make the executable?
I appreciate your answers. Thank you

You'll need to create your own executable program using JasperReports library to do that.
There's, also, an open source project offering command line tool but I haven't tried it.
Try JasperStarter http://jasperstarter.cenote.de/usage.html
It is a tool that allows you to open a jrxml from command line and export the report.
In the case of JasperStarter, you would invoke the JasperStarter jar from command line and it has a basic UI.
