JAR File Size change

Question

Hi SDNites,

I have a situation where I have exported an imported archive (*.jar) from PI and its size is 2800 KB and then I have imported the same file in NWDS and made some modifications and also have added external *.jars as I have to use some additional libraries. Now when I have exported this jar file back to my desktop, its size has been reduced to 1900 KB. I was wondering how can this happened.

Any pointers on above will be of great help.

Regards,

Abhi

Hi Abhi,

1. Maybe you looked at two versions: a compressed and an uncompressed jar files.

2. Are you sure that both versions of your jar files were created using the same compiler version?

Best regards,

Andrzej

Hi Andrzej,

Thanks for the response.

I have exported it from PI 7.31 to desktop and then moved to NWDS 7.3 and then after making changes followed the reverse path. I hav made comparison of file sizes in my desktop where it has reduced from 2800 KB to 1900 KB.

Note : Build of the code was initially done in XI3.0 and currently I am making changes in PI 7.31.
