Method Detail

unpackTo

public static void unpackTo(PathReference jarFile,
                            PathReference dest)
                     throws java.io.IOException

Unpacks the JAR file at jarFile to the directory dest.

If the supplied dest PathReference does not exist, it is created as a directory and the JAR file is unpacked directly into the newly created directory.

If the supplied dest PathReference already exists and is a directory then the JAR file is unpacked as a subdirectory of the supplied directory this directory. The name of the generated subdirectory is that of the JAR file without the file extension - so foo.jar is unpacked into a directory foo.

Parameters:

jarFile - the JAR file to unpack

dest - the destination directory

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs during unpack.
