How to execute a source Code provided as a jar file?

Iam trying to test lattice monitoring framework in my virtual environment. I downloaded the source monitoring-src-0.6.4.jar from lattice. I executed it using 

java -jar monitoring-src-0.6.4.jar

but iam getting the message like no main manifest attribute, in monitoring-src-0.6.4.jar

I checked MANIFEST.MF in META-INF it is like this

"Manifest-Version: 1.0

Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.7.1

Created-By: 14.3-b01-101 (Apple Inc.)"

No main class is there. I dont know which one is the main class.

Then I downloaded the compiled version monitoring-0.6.4.jar from lattice and executed 

java -jar monitoring-0.6.4.jar

but gives me same error "no main manifest attribute, in monitoring-0.6.4.jar". I dont know what to do?? Could you please help me to solve this problem?? I dont know whether iam doing the correct thing.

You can't execute the source code. Do exactly what you're already doing, but download the compiled version.
