Simplify Your Application Delivery with One-JAR
By P. Simon Tuffs2005-04-22
Resources
• You'll find more documentation, downloads, and examples for One-JAR on Sourceforge.net.
• One-JAR has recently been integrated with the Fat JAR Eclipse Plugin (FJEP), a tool that helps you build flattened out JAR files for deployment. Available from release 0.0.12.
• The Java Archive Eclipse Plugin tool lets you view and launch JAR files within Eclipse.
• Check out the following bytecode manipulation tools (my personal preference is Javassist):
• Javassist
• Byte Code Engineering Library (BCEL)
• " Java programming dynamics, Part 1: Classes and class loading" (developerWorks, April 2003) gives a high-level introduction to the subject of classloaders, and has more resources for you to follow. Author Dennis Sosnoski also discusses Javassist and BCEL later in this same series; a link to those articles is included in this first part.
• " J2EE class loading demystified " (developerWorks, August 2002) is a beginner's look at classloading.
• David Gallardo's " Getting started with the Eclipse platform" (developerWorks, April 2003) introduces the features and architecture behind Eclipse.
• You'll find articles about every aspect of Java programming in the developerWorks Java technology zone.
• Visit the Developer Bookstore for a comprehensive Listing of technical books, including hundreds of Java-related titles.
