jar and jad

[Mihai]

i know that i can use winrar to "decompile" and "zip" back the jar and i know that the jad is kind of description of the content of jad ( info file ? ) , anyway, my question is after i recompile the jar and set the size of jar in jad and upload it to my webserver how come it is saving as a zip from there to the phone ? Is ther a trick ? do i miss something ?

Thank you

JAR files are almost identical to ZIP files...but you should always use java -jar command to create jar files.

Here is a tutorial on how to create JAR files

As for creating JAD files, I would suggest that you use JADMaker available at

my jad is sending me to my jar file in a zip format , is this because in my httpd file i did not put :
AddType text/vnd.sun.j2me.app-descriptor .jad

AddType application/java-archive .jar
? or because it is not compiled good after i open it in winrar explorer without extracting?
