JAR file information that is stored in a data development project includes the location of the JAR file on the local file system, the SQL JAR name, and the Java™ path if applicable. When this information is stored in the project, you can compile and package Java stored procedures that reference classes in the JAR file. You can also use this stored information to more easily deploy the JAR file to a database server, either during the import or at a later time, without having to specify the information again.
