<div><p>To download, install, and use Java™ packages more effectively on an iSeries™ server,
|
||
|
see the following topics.</p>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Packages with graphical user interfaces</strong></p>
|
||
|
<p>Java programs
|
||
|
used with graphical user interface (GUI) require the use of a presentation
|
||
|
device with graphical display capabilities. For example, you can use a personal
|
||
|
computer, technical workstation, or network computer. You can use Native Abstract
|
||
|
Windowing Toolkit (NAWT) to provide your Java applications and servlets with the
|
||
|
full capability of the Java 2 Software Development Kit (J2SDK),
|
||
|
Standard Edition Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT) graphics functions. For
|
||
|
more information, see <a href="nawt.htm">Native Abstract Windowing Toolkit
|
||
|
(NAWT)</a>.</p>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Case sensitivity and integrated file system</strong></p>
|
||
|
<p>Integrated file system provides file systems, which are both case-sensitive
|
||
|
and those that are not with regard to file names. QOpenSys is an example of
|
||
|
a case-sensitive file system within the integrated file system. Root, '/',
|
||
|
is an example of a case-insensitive file system. For more information, see
|
||
|
the <a href="../ifs/rzaaxkickoff.htm" target="_blank">Integrated
|
||
|
file system</a> topic.</p>
|
||
|
<p> Even though a JAR or class may be located in a case-insensitive file system, Java is
|
||
|
still a case-sensitive language. While <samp class="codeph">wrklnk '/home/Hello.class'</samp> and <samp class="codeph">wrklnk
|
||
|
'/home/hello.class'</samp> produce the same results, <samp class="codeph">JAVA CLASS(Hello)</samp> and <samp class="codeph">JAVA
|
||
|
CLASS(hello)</samp> are calling different classes. </p>
|
||
|
<p><strong>ZIP file handling and JAR file handling</strong></p>
|
||
|
<p>ZIP files and JAR files contain a set of Java classes. When you use the <a href="../cl/crtjvapgm.htm" target="_blank">Create Java Program
|
||
|
(CRTJVAPGM)</a> command on one of these files, the classes are verified,
|
||
|
converted to an internal machine form, and if specified, transformed to iSeries machine
|
||
|
code. You can treat ZIP files and JAR files like any other individual class
|
||
|
file. When an internal machine form is associated with one of these files,
|
||
|
it remains associated with the file. The internal machine form is used on
|
||
|
future runs in place of the class file to improve performance. If you are
|
||
|
unsure whether a current Java program is associated with your class
|
||
|
file or JAR file, use the <a href="../cl/dspjvapgm.htm" target="_blank"> Display Java Program (DSPJVAPGM)</a> command
|
||
|
to display information about your Java program on your iSeries server.</p>
|
||
|
<p>In previous releases of the IBM<sup>®</sup> Developer Kit for Java, you
|
||
|
had to recreate a Java program if you changed the JAR file or ZIP file
|
||
|
in any way, because the attached Java program would become unusable. This
|
||
|
is no longer true. In many cases, if you change a JAR file or ZIP file, the Java program
|
||
|
is still valid and you do not have to recreate it. If partial changes are
|
||
|
made, such as when a single class file is updated within a JAR file, you only
|
||
|
need to recreate the affected class files that are within the JAR file.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Java programs
|
||
|
remain attached to the JAR file after most typical changes to the JAR file.
|
||
|
For example, these Java programs remain attached to the JAR
|
||
|
file when:</p>
|
||
|
<ul><li>Changing or recreating a JAR file by using the <a href="javatool.htm">ajar
|
||
|
tool</a>.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Changing or recreating a JAR file by using the <a href="javatool.htm">jar
|
||
|
tool</a>.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Replacing a JAR file by using the 0S/400 COPY command or the Qshell <samp class="codeph">cp</samp> utility.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
<p>If you access a JAR file in the integrated file system through iSeries Access
|
||
|
for Windows<sup>®</sup> or
|
||
|
from a mapped drive on a personal computer (PC), these Java programs
|
||
|
remain attached to the JAR file when:</p>
|
||
|
<ul><li>Dragging and dropping another JAR file onto the existing integrated file
|
||
|
system JAR file.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Changing or recreating the integrated file system JAR file by using the <a href="javatool.htm">jar tool</a>.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Replacing the integrated file system JAR file by using the PC copy command.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
<p>When a JAR file is changed or replaced, the Java program that is attached to it is no
|
||
|
longer current.</p>
|
||
|
<p>There is one exception in which Java programs do not remain attached to
|
||
|
the JAR file. The attached Java programs are destroyed if you use file
|
||
|
transfer protocol (FTP) to replace the JAR file. For example, this occurs
|
||
|
if you use the FTP <samp class="codeph">put</samp> command to replace the JAR file.</p>
|
||
|
<p>See <a href="runtperf.htm">Java runtime performance</a> for more
|
||
|
detailed information about the performance characteristics of JAR files.</p>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Java extensions
|
||
|
framework</strong></p>
|
||
|
<p>In J2SDK, extensions are packages of Java classes that you can use to extend
|
||
|
the functionality of the core platform. An extension or application is packaged
|
||
|
in one or more JAR files. The extension mechanism allows the Java virtual
|
||
|
machine to use the extension classes in the same way that the virtual machine
|
||
|
uses the system classes. The extension mechanism also provides a way for you
|
||
|
to retrieve extensions from specified URLs when they are not already installed
|
||
|
in the J2SDK or Java 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition.</p>
|
||
|
<p>See <a href="instextn.htm">Install extensions for the IBM Developer
|
||
|
Kit for Java</a> for information on installing extensions.</p>
