  • Object oriented class archive file maker and method
    Patent number: 6336122
    Abstract: A tool referred to herein as an archive maker operates on one or more existing archive files that contain multiple object oriented classes to generate one or more new archive files. The archive maker takes a list of required classes, analyzes those classes in one or more existing archive files to determine any classes upon which they depend, and creates a new archive file with all the required and dependent classes. This allows the classes that are not required to be stripped out of the archive file. The archive maker may also be used to partition an existing archive file into multiple new archive files according to one or more partition criteria. In addition, the archive maker may be used to consolidate multiple existing archive files into a single new archive file.
