One more option is to embed the jar in base64 encoding in a script, extract the jar to a temp location and run it. The following Perl script does that (it uses the base64 executable, but you can probably use MIME::Base64 as well). #!/usr/bin/env perl
$jar = "/tmp/lp-$ENV{USER}.jar"; unless (-e $jar) { open DECODE, "|base64 -d > $jar" or die "can't open base64 pipe"; print DECODE <DATA>; } exec "java", "-jar", $jar, @ARGV __DATA__ <YOUR BASE64 ENCODED JAR GOES HERE> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
