    What are RARs & SARs for?

    balteo

      Hello,

      I am new to JBoss and I have noticed that there are several SARs and RARs archives in the "server\default\deploy" directory of JBoss.

      Can someone tell me what SARs and RARs files are for please?

      How are they different from Jar and War archives?

      Thanks in advance,

      Balteo.

          RARs are a packaging format for Java Connector Architecture (JCA) resource adapters. SARs are JBoss specific service archives, used for packaging MBean components with other deployment units (such as WARs and EARs).
