Create jar with nested jars programmatically
Hello,
I want to create a jar which will contain other (nested) jars, and then I want my main class (inside the created jar) to make use of classes within the nested jars. And all this, I want to do programmatically (e.g. using Runtime.exec()). Is this possible?
Thanks,

I guess I'm just wasting my time doing your own research for you

Re: Create jar with nested jars programmatically
I specifically said "programmatically" (I am aware of this page ;-)
And what do you mean about cross-posting?! What's wrong with posting the same question at two totally different forums?!
I can't believe you spent to replies showing off and insulting, and none helping!

Re: Create jar with nested jars programmatically
I'm trying to help, without pay, in my own valuable time. And it appears you didn't like it so you flushed the toilet. Fine. The least you can do is respect the help people are trying to give you - and realize that people on other forums are doing the same, and with hundreds of other folks seeking help here not letting people know where else you've posted can be considered rude - the reasons why are clearly outlined in the link above which it is evident you did not bother to read. And if you read the link I provided in post #2, each one of those solutions can be run - programatically.Originally Posted by yannischris
Re: Create jar with nested jars programmatically
If you want to help, just do it (and stop being coky about it) or just stop doing it. All you did was googling for 5 seconds for the purpose of insulting me by throwing me the "I feel lucky" reuslt, and in the second reply you showed me my own post which obviously I have read it. So stop being a drama queen about the 10 seconds you spent (just send me the bill if it's going to make it all right).
And please don't talk to me about rudeness.
Now that's all.
Re: Create jar with nested jars programmatically
You have no idea what my intentions were, but I can guarantee you they were genuine.
Best of luck finding a solution.
Re: Create jar with nested jars programmatically
In that case excuse my misunderstanding.
PS:
Maybe I found something here: Simplify your application delivery with One-JAR.
I post it so that at least someone else could profit from this post in the future.
Re: Create jar with nested jars programmatically
Instead of questioning the intentions and helpfulness of a valued member (and moderator) of the forums, why don't you read the damn documentation for once? The answer to all of you're problems is in there.
File and Stream I/O
JarInputStream
JarOutputStream
URLClassLoader
Re: Create jar with nested jars programmatically
Thanks for the advice.
However, please allow me to retain my own judgement and the right to question whatever and whoever I want at any given time.
That would be all.

You don't have that right. Ever heard of something called respect?

Read up on it.

How clever of you to post that link! I am speechless (and really bored..)

Unfortunately, this thread has run its course. Let us all please take a step back, chill out, and move on. Thread locked.
