1. 1. 10. The jar Tool

The jar tool creates a JAR archive file by combining multiple files of a Java application.

The jar tool compresses content based on the ZIP and ZLIB compression formats.

You can also use the jar tool to extract the content of a JAR file.

The syntax to use the jar tool is:


Usage: jar {ctxui}[vfm0Me] [jar-file] [manifest-file] [entry-point] [-C dir] files

Option	Description
c	Creates a new archive.
t	Lists the contents of an archive.
x	Extracts contents from an archive.
u	Updates an existing archive.
v	Displays output at the command prompt while the jar tool performs an operation.
f	Specifies the name of the archive file.
m	Includes a specified manifest file in the archive.
o	Instructs the jar tool not to compress content.
