Where to find jnlp.jar for Java 7

Question

We're trying to upgrade our app from Java 5 to Java 7, but can't find jnlp.jar in the JDK 7 installation.

In the Java 5 installation (unix machine), it was located in $JAVA_HOME/sample/jnlp/servlet/jnlp.jar (and also in JDK 6), but that location doesn't exist in my JDK 7 installation, and a find command turns up nothing.

NOTE: The JDK version on the unix machine is 1.7.0_11 (this is older version of 7 just temporary until a newer one gets installed). On my PC, I have 1.7.0_40, which also doesn't have the jnlp.jar.

According to the JNLP API Examples, it says that the jnlp.jar is included in the JNLP Developers Pack. Ummm, okay.

I can't find it here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/indexes/downloads/index.html

This link is dead: http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/javawebstart/download-jnlp.html

This link looked promising, but no download for Java 7: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/developers-140165.html

Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

Actually it's javaws.jar, you'll find it in the jre/lib directory.

Answer 2

Download the jdk samples for windows. They have the jnlp.jar, jardiff.jar etc.
