I'm currently working on a security encryption algorithms. I found a java implementation I need, so to not invent a wheel again I want to convert the algorithm class to jar and then import it as a external library in my project.
I've tried:
jar -cvf result.jar class.class
It makes a .jar
file but once I try to use it in Intellij File>Project Structure>Libraries>+
and after use it, it doesn't get recognized in code with it's given name ( local.java.algorithm
).
To wrap up I want to do is: simple java class > jar > add to project as external library > use it in code
How to make this jar recognizable by IDEA?
When you create a JAR file containing classes, the structure of the JAR file needs to mirror the package name structure.
For example, if you have a class called MyClass.java
whose contents looks like this:
package local.java.algorithm;
// imports
public class MyClass ... {
}
You compile that to MyClass.class in the directory local/java/algorithm. The structure of the JAR file then needs to be:
/
/local
/local/java
/local/java/algorithm
/local/java/algorithm/MyClass.class
I suspect that you have actually created it like this:
/
/MyClass.class
which will mean that Intellij (or javac
or anything else) won't be able to resolve
import local.java.algorithm.MyClass;
at compile time OR at runtime.
