Jar files and versions
I have a bunch of jar files in a merge module that I am composing. Since jar files dont have versions, I wonder how does InstallShield deal with it? Is it intelligent enough to dig into the manifest file? What is the suggested approach with jar files.
Thanks!
Thanks!

If you are using a Windows Installer-based project to distribute this file, Windows Installer will use its file-versioning rules, which will treat this file as unversioned (unless you use a companion file, or other table-based mechanisms to override this). In an InstallScript project, the file will also be treated as unversioned, so overwriting will follow the options you select.
