To create a JAR file in the IDE, you must first create a JAR recipe. The JAR recipe stores information about your JAR file, which you can later modify and use to create a new JAR file.
To create a JAR recipe:
Click Next.
For a more detailed description of this panel, see The JAR Contents Property Editor.
The JAR recipe file appears as a
node in the Explorer.
On the node's property sheet, you can set a file filter, the JAR file's compression level, and other attributes.
To create a JAR file from a JAR recipe:
The JAR file can not be created if any of its contents or sources that the contents are compiled from are not in mounted filesystems.
To view the contents of the JAR file as a filesystem:
A filesystem node for the JAR
file appears in the Explorer.
If you later change the JAR recipe file and rebuild the JAR, the mounted JAR file is no longer up to date. Unmount the JAR file and then remount it to display the current JAR file.
