Why can the file be transferred as an application/octet-stream, just placing the jar under some web directory? Or are you looking for some fully automated way of transferring the jar? Have you looked into Sun's Web Start?

Hello, I need to extend one of my client applications to be able to perform auto update. But I wonder how to make the servlet's method (and the client's method) which will make the transfer of the new application's JAR file to the client... Could anybody show me a snipped of code, which will do the actual transfer (of the Jar fail)? (from both - the Servlet's side and the client application's side) Thanks in advanse!
