NAME

fastjar - a faster jar

SYNOPSIS

fastjar [OPTIONS] [jar-file] [manifest-file] [-C dir] files...

DESCRIPTION

fastjar is an implementation of Sun's jar utility that comes with the JDK, written entirely in C, and runs in a fraction of the time while being 100% feature compatible.

USAGE

If any file is a directory then it is processed recursively. The manifest file name and the archive file name needs to be specified in the same order the -m and -f flags are specified.

OPTIONS

A summary of the options supported by fastjar is included below.

-@: Read names from stdin
-C: change to the specified directory and include the following file
-E: don't include the files found in a directory
-M: Do not create a manifest file for the entries
-0: store only; use no ZIP compression
-V: display version information
-c: create new archive
-f: specify archive file name
-m: include manifest information from specified manifest file
-t: list table of contents for archive
-u: update existing archive (currently fails with exit status 1 and does nothing).
-x: extract named (or all) files from archive
-v: generate verbose output on standard output
