------------------------------------
The reply from Edmund - developer of the java-unrar library.
Hello,
unfortunately the unrar license applies to most of the junrar code. it
does not allow to rebuild the rar compression algorithm the
decompression is open source and can be/was used (see licence.txt). the
parts that are independent from unrar are lgpl, but its difficult to
separate.
Best,
Edmund
