jxl.jar
is the library of JExcelApi , which is a open source java API to read, write, and modify Excel spreadsheets dynamically. It contains all the compiled *.class files, associated metadata and resources that are used by the Java Excel API internally .
Java library are distributed as a .jar file .You can refer to this for more info about JAR.
As the official API of JExcelApi does not contain a file called jxl.java
.I believe this is the Java class created by you to test the function of JExcelApi . To use the JExcelApi , you have to import the necessary classes from the jxl.jar
and specified jxl.jar
to be on the class path when you compile jxl.java
.
So , the connection between jxl.java
and jxl.jar
is that jxl.java
calls the classes from jxl.jar
to manipulate the Excel.
