Remarks
A URL Connection to a Java ARchive (JAR) file or an entry in a JAR file.
The syntax of a JAR URL is:
jar:<url>!/{entry}
for example:
jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/baz.jar!/COM/foo/Quux.class
Jar URLs should be used to refer to a JAR file or entries in a JAR file. The example above is a JAR URL which refers to a JAR entry. If the entry name is omitted, the URL refers to the whole JAR file:
jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/baz.jar!/
Users should cast the generic URLConnection to a JarURLConnection when they know that the URL they created is a JAR URL, and they need JAR-specific functionality. For example:
URL url = new URL("jar:file:/home/duke/duke.jar!/");
JarURLConnection jarConnection = (JarURLConnection)url.openConnection();
Manifest manifest = jarConnection.getManifest();
JarURLConnection instances can only be used to read from JAR files. It is not possible to get a java.io.OutputStream to modify or write to the underlying JAR file using this class.
Examples:
<dl>
<dt>A Jar entry <dd>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/baz.jar!/COM/foo/Quux.class<dt>A Jar file <dd>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/baz.jar!/<dt>A Jar directory <dd>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/baz.jar!/COM/foo/</dl>
!/ is referred to as the <em>separator</em>.
When constructing a JAR url via new URL(context, spec), the following rules apply:
<ul>
<li>if there is no context URL and the specification passed to the URL constructor doesn't contain a separator, the URL is considered to refer to a JarFile.
<li>if there is a context URL, the context URL is assumed to refer to a JAR file or a Jar directory.
<li>if the specification begins with a '/', the Jar directory is ignored, and the spec is considered to be at the root of the Jar file.
Examples:
<dl>
<dt>context: <b>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/jar.jar!/</b>, spec:<b>baz/entry.txt</b>
<dd>url:<b>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/jar.jar!/baz/entry.txt</b>
<dt>context: <b>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/jar.jar!/baz</b>, spec:<b>entry.txt</b>
<dd>url:<b>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/jar.jar!/baz/entry.txt</b>
<dt>context: <b>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/jar.jar!/baz</b>, spec:<b>/entry.txt</b>
<dd>url:<b>jar:http://www.foo.com/bar/jar.jar!/entry.txt</b>
</dl>
</ul>
