Re: How to update a jar file for one source file change?

Good news and bad news. The good news is, the jar update seems
successful, no error msg showing up after running the jar utility for
update per your instruction. The bad news is, the HTML generation for
that particular set of data still failed. And probably I know why, the
previous developer also uses JBuilder (from Borland probably) for this
process, and I noticed that for every java source code, there's an
equivalent of ?.jbx (JBuilder Executable?)

2 points.
- A search on 'jbx file extension' should lead you
(fairly quickly) to a better definition within a couple
of clicks.
- I agree with Andy Dingley that an Ant build of the jar(s)
is the way to go, here. I have never found a use for jar
updating, but imagine there are any number of 'gotchas'
to consider. A fresh build of the Jar(s) should get around
(most of those) potential problems.
