Help on jar versioning

I cant seem to get versioning on jar files to work.
In my .jnlp file I have:
<jar href="images.jar" version="1.3"/>
I named the jar file to images__V1.3.jar.
But I get an exception:
"Missing version field in response from server when accessing resource ("http://..../images.jar, 1.3)"
It sounds like I'm defining it wrong in the .jnlp? Am I missing a tag somewhere?
When I dont use a version, ie just images.jar, everything works ok.
I am using Java WebStart 1.2.0_01.
Thanks

If it is any comfort I am having the same problem, so I will be very interested in the answer as well.
I have tried both versioning using file naming and including a version.xml file in the directory.
Was using the developers guide document as a reference.

Issue with CIS jar version - cis-application-8.0.0.jar on content server

We are having a problem adding this jar to our custom component. We are using this APIs to check-in some programatically.
Following is the error when we try to deploy our component with this jar
===============================================================
IdcAdmin: Content Server idc status: Stopped successfully
Starting the Content Server idc... The server terminated unexpectedly.
02.28 11:36:35.834 main NativeOsUtils version mismatch. The native code version is "7.1.0.2" and the Java version is "7.0.6.0".

========================================================
The content server version is 10.1.3.3.
And the jar version is cis-application-8.0.0.jar. We are able to use the same jar standalone. What could be the problem? Should we need to upgrade to a diffrent jdk version? I am worried that might cause more problems.

Pratap

Thanks for your inputs.
So far I have been looking at only CHECKIN_NEW_FORM and CHECKIN_SEL_FORM services for creating and updating content. items These services require files to be attached. I checked the definitive guide and found that there are 2 other similar services,CHECKIN_NEW and CHECKIN_SEL, that don't need the file to be attached. Instead we can specify the file path of the primary file. Since the xml content file to be checked is in th content server itlsef, these services can be used in my case. Moreover since my content checkin logic is in the context of a service, my code become more simpler.
I began working on it and am calling executeServiceSimple("CHECKIN_NEW") or executeServiceSimple("CHECKIN_SEL") based on whether the content to be checked in is new or to be updated. I am setting all the metadata values of the content file in the m_binder local data of the service object.
I thought this should work cleanly but I am getting the below error

Where get weblogic.jar version 8.1 or 9.2?

I need to get weblogic.jar version 8.1 or 9.2 to use with Hermes because 10.3 apparently does not have class weblogic/security/subject/AbstractSubject... I failed finding it on the net...
Thank you
Leonard

I've got the exakt same problem using weblogic.Deployer .... -appversion, weblogic 10.0 in this case. Works fine with our new jaxws based webservices.
Would be nice if this problem was solved, especially since weblogic10 resolves softlinks so our old method of linking to new versions doesn't work anymore. And the fact that "Changing the source location is not allowed for a previously attempted deployment" doesn't help either.

Any way to get Java Plug-In-like handling of jar versions?

I have jars intended for use with the Java Plug-In with version #'s in properties files (computed by the various tooling for updating these on the server). The jars themselves have no notion of jar #.
I would like to re-use these jars and version #'s with Java Web Start to avoid conditional GETs, but without jar diffing in this case (as I already have many small jars due to lack of jar diffing in the Java Plug-In).
Is there any way I can get Java Web Start to act like the Java Plug-In in this regard (i.e. the jar version # is a statement from the server, the client does a normal GET against the jar URL if its own version is not that stated by the server)?
[Don't get me wrong, jardiffing is cool, but having to do everything differently between Java Web Start and the Java Plug-In is [b]not cool.

Best way IMO would be to create a Socket connection to it so that you could connect with a client app and feed in data that way

Help using jar file!

Help using jar file!
Hello
I have created a jar file by using
jar cvmf Manifest.txt myjar.jar 1.class Mydirectory
In 1.java file :I have used
JEditorPane editor;
editor.setPage(getClass().getResource("/Mydirectory/default.htm"));
If I am only giving myjar.jar file to the client without Mydirectory then also it is working fine by showing default.htm in JeditorPane.
But my problem is I want to use
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start IEXPLORE"+targetstr) ;
targetstr will be the filename with path of the default.htm
If I am giving myjar.jar file with Mydirectory to the client it is working but I don't want to give Mydirectory to the client .
What should I do?
Is there any solution for this?
Using another jar file which will include mydirectory can solve this problem?
Is there any othe concept in java so that I wll be able to hide Mydirectory from client?
Please help.

It seems like you could extract the .htm file from the jar, either with Runtime.exec or using the Jar API classes.

JMF, Linux, wrong codec selected when using jarred version of app

I have problem realising an AVI player when I try and run Linux JMF application when whole application is bundled into jar file and I try and run it using
java -cp <..JMF/lib/jmf.jar:/home/codroe/fobs4jmf.jar..> -jar app.jarIn jmf.log I see:

stat64("jmf.properties", 0xfeffc410)    = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

## Player created: com.sun.media.content.unknown.Handler@30c221
##   using DataSource: com.omnividea.media.protocol.file.DataSource@a401c2I believe it has not selected correct codec for a reason I don't understand.
[I checked I only have one version of jmf.properties on system].
Any ideas why jarred version is different from non-jarred version?
version information:
# JMF Version 2.1.1e
## Platform: Linux, i386, 2.6.5-1.358
## Java VM: Sun Microsystems Inc., 1.5.0
and using fobs4jmf from http://fobs.sourceforge.net

correction, for the last bit I should have said, for non-working jarred version in JMF log I see:
## Player created: com.sun.media.content.unknown.Handler@1cd2e5f
##   using DataSource: com.sun.media.protocol.file.DataSource@911f71indicating wrong codec selected

Help with JAR Files

OK, folks, I need some help here...
And I have researched on this prior to this post, but I still don't get it.
I have a simple application in Reminder.java file. When I compile it, I get Reminder.class and Reminder$ReminderThread.class, because I have an inner class.
I place those files in Reminder directory. I want to make an executable JAR file, so I made a manifest file outside the Reminder directory that contains these lines
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: Reminder.Remindersince the Reminder.class is within the Reminder directory, I understood I had to have a prefix "Reminder."
In the command line, I type
jar cmf manifest Reminder.jar Reminder/Reminder.class Reminder/Reminder$ReminderThread.classAnd I do get a Reminder.jar file, but when I double-click on it, I get a popup saying "Could not find the main class. Program will exit!"
So, what am I doing wrong and how can I fix this? As I said, I have researched, but I can't understand what went wrong nor how to fix the problem.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Never mind, I solved it, I was missing a carriage return in my manifest file. I feel so stupid now...

Need help with jar in jar

Hi folks, I've got a serious(for me!) problem. I have a programm which contains several other jar files in a directory. If I run the program with Eclipse it works quiet well but if I create a Jar file from the whole program I always get the error message: No class def found error. It's the classes used from the included jar files that could not be found. So what should I do? In the jar file are all used class and jar files. Everything is there in the right order. But it doesn't work.
I hope you can help me with that. One idea was that these other jar files have to be added to the manifest.mf ?! I've got no idea.

For me it workes like this:
manifest.mf:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: gui.testgui
Class-Path: lib/castor.jar lib/xercesImpl.jar lib/xml-apis.jar
I make my jar:
jar cvfm myjar.jar manifest.mf .
The dot stands for the directory where I am. All files and directories of this directory are jared.
The information in my manifest-file are used to generate a manifest for the jar.

DeployJava.js update JAR versions

Hello,
I am using deployJava.js to deploy my applet. It works great and correctly caches the applet locally on the users machine.
However, when I want to update the applet server-side, it does not detect that the file has changed and the client does not get the new version.
the APPLET tag had a great feature where you could go:
<param name="cache_version" value="0.0.6.B">
and incrementing the value of this would force the client to re-download that JAR since it had been changed.
I have tried adding this parameter in the deployJava.js case but it has no effect.
Any help would be appreciated.

Apparently no one has reported this is a bug on the bug parade. I did that, for what it's worth. I am shocked that this has been allowed to remain open for two years.

Please Help! .jar file don't work.

Hi, I've written a swing program that works fine when run from command prompt but it doesn't work when I create a self executable jar file and run it.
Here's the generated classes after compiling the source file:
TheGMailClient.class (main class)
TheGMailClient$1.class
MailSender.class
MyAuthenticator.class
I also have a GIF image file.

The error is occuring because the jar ignores the system classpath.
You need to set your classpath in the manifest file to find the external jars.
Otherwise the external jars will not be found.
In your case class javax/mail/MessagingException
For example:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: 1.4.2_05 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Main-Class: TheGMailClient
Class-Path: . jars/mail.jar jars/activation.jar
The path will need to be correct in the above related to your system.
Also because you mention a gif image.
You will need to add the image to the jar - you haven't.
make sure you are loading the GIF image file in a manner that can be used from a jar.
Image image = null;
try {
image = ImageIO.read(getCkass().getResource("logo.gif"));
catch {
// what ever
}You may need a relative path to the image in the jar depending on where the gif is.
For example image = ImageIO.read(getCkass().getResource("images/test.gif"));

Need help with Jar file

I am writing an Application in Java using swing and all that good stuff but I am currently ready to do some beta testing to find any other errors.
The problems is I want it to be easy to use so I was just going to throw the classes ina jar file so they could just run the jar files.
For some reason I keep getting a cannot find main class error??
Here is the manifest file for the Jar file
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: 1.4.0_01 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Main-Class: VRPServer.class
VRPServer is the class that has the main in it.
if I go to the command line and run I get
E:\JAVA\VRP\Server>java -jar VRPServer.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: VRPServer/class
if I double click the jar I get a pop-up saying "Could not find the main class, program will exit."
I really don't understand Jar files all that well, I went through the tutorials but still can't see why this isn't working. Any help is appreciated. :)

I think your problem is that you shouldn't add the '.class' to the name of your main class in your manifest; it should simply be the fully-qualified name of the class, for example:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: 1.4.0_01 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Main-Class: mypackage1.mypacage2.MyClassHope this is all it takes.

JAR Versioning

Hi,
I am trying to use a manifest file to version my jar, it contains a number of different packages but I just want to version the whole jar. I have tried a using the implementation and specification tags, but I seem to be unable to retrieve the manifest data from the jar. I do not get any errors but neither do I get a version number.
Here is the contents of my manifest:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: My Company
Name: com.xx.yyy.ppp.ttt.hy
Implementation-Title: "jar name"
Implementation-Version: "1.2.6"
Implementation-Vendor: "My company"
I have tried with and without quote marks, I have tried using the Package Class to list out all the packages and the implementation and specification versions and all i get is nulls for my packages and the JRE info.
Am I missing something here, I have looked around on the forums and the specs and I cant see what I am missing so any help would be great.
Thanks!

Hi, I tried it out and it works.
My manifest.mf looks like this:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Implementation-Version: 3.1415
the code I use to retrieve the info is
public static void main(String[] args) {
Class clazz=myClass.class;
String version=clazz.getPackage().getImplementationVersion();
System.out.println("version="+version);
I got the 3.1415 in the output!

I have a new error on startup & rebooting doesn't help--Error: Platform version '1.9.1.4 is not compatible with minVersion =1.9.1.5 maxVersion =1.9.1.5 ...Had to use IE and download FF 3.6

There aren't a lot of details in addition to what I put in the question field. Just got the FF beta v4 and used it fine, but when I attempted to launch it today, I got the error. The only info not listed there is the error title, XULRunner, which may be helpful. Other than that, I have a screen shot of it if that would be helpful. That's about it.

Do a clean (re)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
