Are you sure RAR is a valid Java archive type, that the Java Virtual Machine knows what a RAR is and knows how to open it to find class files inside etc?
I know what a RAR file is, believe that "only" some J2EE servers will treat RAR like a JAR and know to how to find class files inside it etc. I don't believe this is built-in to JDK. Wayne On 5/1/06, Jagan Padmanabha Pillai -X (jpadmana - Insight Solutions, Inc. at Cisco) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Does anyone have details on how rar artifact works. It has a parameter <includeJar>, what does it do. Default the value is true. But I don't see any jars added to it. But the class files are added to the rar in the structure com.xxx.xxx. Another component which has this rar as dependency is failing. Can't seem to find the class files. But if I build the same artifact as a jar file instead of rar and add it to the dependency it seems to be fine.

But somehow it doesn't seems to find the classes in that dependency. Gives the error msg, package xxx doesn't exists. But when I build the same artifact into a jar file and add the dependency, its fine. Does anyone know whats the problem here.
