Read /Write contents to a Java jar file

[Hellouser 0]

How do i read and write an ini file inside a java rar file without extracting the contents.?

Any help / Idea much appreciated.

Java rar file? Did you mean jar file? If so, you'll have to extract / repack it. In FFAddOn I read the GUI Accelerator keys from a FireFox jar file, take a look at it's source, maybe that helps you.

Maybe you use Ant or even automate ant via autoit

Besides, jar ist normal zip, so you should be able to use a zip UDF from the forum.
