nested JARs

How to make nested JARs?I read that it is not possible - in order to load class files stored in such nested JARs one would have to implement his own classloader. But those were several-year-old posts.Is the situation different now?Thanks.

No the situation has not changed.Sun does not support internal JARs now and I don't believe they ever will.

Start with Sun's Java Tutorial and its discussion of classloaders. Use Google.

This one: http://one-jar.sourceforge.net/ seems to work.

Hello,

anyway, i have one huge dilemma.

the app that i am working with was packaged using jdk1.4, with nested jars.

when i run it using jdk1.4 java -jar the code can definitely see all included jars (it runs with no problems at all)... while if i run exactly the same jar with 1.5 it starts to complain of classNotFoundException....

how can that be explained?

regards

marco
