U may write a installation program.
But every platform may require different steps. E.g. creating short-cut is different for Windows and Linux.
In windows env, u can use InstallShield. Its rather simple for creating installation. I have worked with version 6.0. I had read about a InstallShield like software which creates platform independant installable (i.e. a small java appln) for our java program, but I am not sure about it.

Yes, I have tried to use Installshield.
But it create many files for the installing package, not only one file.
What I want is that the package is one
file. User can click one file and all
things are ready.

Well u can put everything in one self-extractable. U can do that using WinZip also. Then on clicking that file, self-extractable takes care of extracting the files to temp location and then starting 'setup.exe'.
