Java Issue

[LentMinecraft]

Ok, I need some help with java compiling.

I have decompiled an old plugin, with WinRAR, and extracted it to a normal folder. I edited to class I needed to edit and I'm not too sure on how to recompile it backinto a functioning jar file.

If anyone can tell me a program or a method on how to do this, I would be thankfull.

Alright, so you need a suitable IDE such as Eclipse to do this or you can do it using the `javac` command on the command prompt (Requires an installation of the Java JDK) . Hope this helps

Is the eclipse option as easy as copy and pasting each class and package into eclipse?

I'm not too sure but the way most people do it is using an IDE like Eclipse.

Pretty much, (Still requires the JDK )

The way your original post is worded it makes it seem like you're trying to edit the java bytecode in the .class files - you need to decompile class files (or the entire jar itself) using a decompiler such as Luyten to convert them into human-readable .java files.

You can then compile the .java files into classes or a compiled jar by using an IDE (Integrated Development Environment - basically a program used to edit code) or the javac (java compiler) command line; in both instances you'll need the JDK (Java Development Kit).
