How a zip file changed to jar file

Hi,
implfactory.properties in <WASstudioHome>\runtimes\base_v51\properties has to be zipped and changed to type of jar and has to be added to the classpath of my application.Can any one help me how to make it?
thank u
Dharani

First save it outside mail, e.g. on desktop; simply drag it there or use save function of attached files in Mail.app
If you double click on it and does not open, the file is corrupt or incomplete.
If you did that while in Mail.app, I assume the download had not yet been completed at the time you clicked on it.

How can I get a single jar file with NetBeans?

How can I get a single jar file with NetBeans?
When I create the project I get these files:
dist/lib/libreria1.jar
dist/lib/libreria2.jar
dist/software.jar
The libraries that have been imported to create the project are in separate folders:
libreria1/libreria1.jar
libreria2/libreria2.jar
libreria1, libreria2, dist folders are all located inside the project folder.
I added the following code to the build.xml:
<target name="-post-jar">
<jar jarfile="dist/software.jar">
<zipfileset src="${dist.jar}" excludes="META-INF/*" />
<zipfileset src="dist/lib/libreria1.jar" excludes="META-INF/*" />
<zipfileset src="dist/lib/libreria2.jar" excludes="META-INF/*" />
<manifest>
<attribute name="Main-Class" value="pacco.classeprincipale"/>
</manifest>
</jar>
</target>
Of course there is also the project folder:
src/pacco/classeprincipale.form
src/pacco/classeprincipale.java
Can you tell me what is wrong? The error message I get is as follows:
C:...\build.xml:75: Problem creating jar: archive is not a ZIP archive BUILD FAILED (total time: 2 seconds)

This is not a NetBeans forum, it is a JDeveloper forum. You might want to try http://forums.netbeans.org/. I also saw your other question - try looking in the New to Java forum: New To Java

How to load xsl-files out of jar-files

Hi,
I have included some xsl-files into a jar-file. I can access this files with the following code-snipped if the jar-file is local on my harddisk:
ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource("pcodeliste.xsl").openStream()
But the problem is that I use this jar-file as a part of a j2ee-application (it's a ear-file). After deploying this ear-file to my application-server (oc4j) I get a null-pointer exception if I call the xsl-file with the code above.
Can anybody help me how to change this code or how to change the j2ee-application to have access to this files??
Thank you very much
Tobias

Hi Rykk!
Thanks for the answer, but it does not work since the jar, containing my file is inside an ear.

How to create and use library JAR files with command-line tools?

Development Tools -> General Questions:
I am trying to figure out how to put utility classes into JAR files and then compile and run applications against those JAR files using the command-line javac, jar, and java tools. I am using jdk1.7.0_17 on Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.7.
I have posted a simple example with one utility class, one console application class, and a Makefile:
http://holgerdanske.com/users/dpchrist/java/examples/jar-20130520-2134.tar.gz
Here is a console session:
2013-05-20 21:39:01 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ cat src/com/example/util/Hello.java
package com.example.util;
public class Hello {
    public static void hello(String arg) {
     System.out.println("hello, " + arg);
2013-05-20 21:39:12 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ cat src/com/example/hello/HelloConsole.java
package com.example.hello;
import static com.example.util.Hello.hello;
public class HelloConsole {
    public static void main(String [] args) {
     hello("world!");
2013-05-20 21:39:21 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ make
rm -f hello
find . -name '*.class' -delete
javac src/com/example/util/Hello.java
javac -cp src src/com/example/hello/HelloConsole.java
echo "java -cp src com.example.hello.HelloConsole" > hello
chmod +x hello
2013-05-20 21:39:28 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ ./hello
hello, world!I believe I am looking for:
1. Command-line invocation of "jar" to put the utility class bytecode file (Hello.class) into a JAR?
2. Command-line invocation of "javac" to compile the application (HelloConsole.java) against the JAR file?
3. Command-line invocation of "java" to run the application (HelloConsole.class) against the JAR file?
I already know how t compile the utility class file.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
David

I finally figured it out:
1. All name spaces must match -- identifiers, packages, file system, JAR contents, etc..
2. Tools must be invoked from specific working directories with specific option arguments, all according to the project name space.
My key discovery was that if the code says
import com.example.util.Hello;then the JAR must contain
com/example/util/Hello.classand I must invoke the compiler and interpreter with an -classpath argument that is the full path to the JAR file
-classpath ext/com/example/util.jarThe code is here:
http://holgerdanske.com/users/dpchrist/java/examples/jar-20130525-1301.tar.gz
Here is a console session that demonstrates building and running the code two ways:
1. Compiling the utility class into bytecode, compiling the application class against the utility bytecode, and running the application bytecode against the utility bytecode.
2. Putting the (previously compiled) utility bytecode into a JAR and running the application bytecode against the JAR. (Note that recompiling the application against the JAR was unnecessary.)
(If you don't know Make, understand that the working directory is reset to the initial working directory prior to each and every command issued by Make):

How to read a file inside the JAR file

Hi All,
I want to save some preferences in a file called "preferences". I kept the preferences file under my java package.
If i am running the code inside the NetBeans 6.9 IDE it's working file. But once i have created a JAR and try to run the application, it couldn't find the path.
Please help me that how to resolve this issue. I don't want to save this preferences file outside of my JAR (i.e) within my java package.
Here is the code,
package mypackage;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
public class ReadFile
    private void writeFile()
        try
            OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("mypackage/preferences").getPath().replace("%20", " "));
            PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(out);
            writer.println("Hello Java!");
            writer.close();
            out.close();
        catch (Exception ex)
            System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
    private void readFile()
        try
            FileInputStream fi = new FileInputStream(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("mypackage/preferences").getPath().replace("%20", " "));
            BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fi));
            System.out.println(br.readLine().trim());
            br.close();
            fi.close();
        catch (Exception ex)
            System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
    public static void main(String[] args)
        ReadFile read = new ReadFile();
        read.writeFile();
        read.readFile();
}If i run the JAR, i get the following error message,
{color:#ff0000}*file:\my jar path\jarname.jar!\mypackage\preferences (The filename, directoryname, or volume label syntax is incorrect)*{color}

You cannot update a running jar file. I am sorry. I didn't know about it. Thanks to point out.
There are two ways I approach this depending on my exact requirements -
1) use the java.util.prefs.Preferences APII will try this one

2) if not already present I copy the preferences file from the jar to a known place. I use a directory in the user's home directory and normally make the directory name the program with a '.' prefix.
One cannot access files in a jar file using the File API. One needs to use the getResource() or getResourceAsStream() methods on Class or ClassLoader.

How to modify the Manifest file in the JAR file

Hi guys,
i am having a JAR which contains one Manifest file and 10 class files.
actually i want to do some changes on the manifest file, but by using the ,
" jar -cmf new_manifest_file jar_fileName all_class_files " option i am able to modify the manifest file by repacking the .class also.
i want to modify the manifest file without disturbing the existing class files in the JAR file.
Thanx in advance.............! ! ! !
bye,
subbu

yeah, that is correct.
my doubt is,
Is it possible to modify the Manifest file which is inside the jar file, by without disturbing the Class files.

How do I deploy an external JAR file

Hello,
How do I deploy an external JAR file?
I am grateful for every hint.

Hi Manuel,
If you read my blog mentioned in the beginning of the thread, you will note that such solution is not supported in our engine due to number of reasons.
Please, read the blog and use application library shared among these two applications. You will achieve the same effect. Please note that the using application will need run and deploy-time dependencies to the shared library.
You should not add files to any of the folders manually or manipulate engine's classpath in such situations.

How can I access my java class file in a .jar file ...PLz Help anyone!!

Hi Folks,
I am new in Java programming, have a .jar file that contains .java files that I want no access and use from another .java file. These files in the .jar file basically form a library thus have no main-method. However I can not declare an instance of the library (in the .jar file) and use it within my program.
Plz help ...I have tried all I know in vain.
Thanks.

hi HasanOen
u need to edit the manifest file in yr JAR file u can do this by using the following cammand or by making the batch file but make sure all the files are in same folder.
first of all u need to make a text file like below
/////////// first file name: "THIS.txt" /////////
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: java // whatever here
Main-Class: PUT YOUR MAIN CLASS NAME HERE (like MAIN)
//////////////////// BATCH FILE "RUN.bat" //////////////
jar cmf This.txt App2.jar MANIFEST.mf com
com is the folder where your all the class file are.
now double click the run.bat file. this will edit yr manifest file.
hope this should work for u
Note : Make sure yr jar file, txt file, bat file, and yr classes folder is in the same folder(I mean at same level)

How to read, write file inside the JAR file?

Hi all,
I want to read the file inside the jar file, use following method:
File file = new File("filename");
It works if not in JAR file, but it doesn't work if it's in a JAR file.
I found someone had the same problem, but no reply.
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=22&thread=180618
Can you help me ? I have tried this for all night !
Thanks in advance
Leo

If you want to read a file from the JAR file that the
application is packaged in (rather than a separate
external JAR file) you do it like this ...
InputStream is =
ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream("filename");Better to use
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream();
From a class near to where the data is. This deals with multiple classloaders properly.
