I have a C# application, where I need to download and run a JAR file, without it being saved to disk. Is this possible in C#? I can download files via WebClient just fine to disk (which is what I’m doing as of posting) & launch it via a batch script which is saved then deleted, but I want to take it a step further by not having anything touch the drive.
Thanks.
You could write a special Java class loader that loads classes via interprocess communication (IPC) from the .NET process instead of from a file. In addition, you’ll need a small launcher JAR that first installs the class loader and then executes the JAR retrieved via IPC. And you’ll need to implement the server part of the IPC communication in your .NET application.
But is it worth it? What would be the benefit of such a complex piece of software?
