Hello,

I've been looking at the jar documentation and the first thing that called my attention was the fact that there is a java.util.jar package in java that takes care of jars. Question: Do I have to implement this package and then a wrapper that runs as a standalone application (the jar application itself)?. There is also a java.util.zip package (it's going to be useful to have it if it exists already in harmony), is this already implemented in harmony?

Best regards,

Edmundo López B.

I'll echo Alexei's welcome and comments.

At the broadest level, you are free to write the JAR tool in Java code,
using the regular class libraries, and it should behave as described
here [1].

Once you have a working Java application we can trivially create a
command-line tool from it.

For example, here's [2] the entry point for the appletviewer tool.
