extract file jar file in Windows
Dear Expert,
Whne I try to unzip a jar jave library file on windows vista, some files are missing because the windows will
treat the file name of "ABC.class" same as "abc.clss" that will let both files wiil be overswritten and only allow
final one of both ABC or abc.class file existed. People suggested me to extract it in Linux/Unix platform but it doesn't
help when I reload it unzip directory into windows because of the similar reason just mentioned above.
How can I make WIndows file/directory system to be case sensitive similar to Java is also case senitive so that
we could extract the exact number of file from jar jave file without overwrite issue ?

simple answer - you can't
Windows is not and cannot be made case sensitive - you need to use filenames that are distinct.

It appears I am mistaken !
I just checked to be sure and found a reference that says that of you install the .net framework Windows can be made case sensitive
The key is the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControl
1, the file system is treated as case insensitive.
0, the file system is treated as case sensitive.

in other words, there is nothing to do with windows vista for the issue besides I switch to use Window .net frame system, Right ?
No other possibility ?

The .net framework is an installable feature that can be added see http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6&displaylang=en

Yes, it is good and possibe to make the file system to be case sentitive in windows, but where I can
change NFS setting and let it to "0" instead of "1" after downland .net frame in Windows.
Please advise it
Thanks

java jar application, RIght ? Any alternative is possible , please correct me if I made any mistake, thanks

seems to me like you can use the switch mentioned above to preserve case sensitivity and when you install certain versions of .net this is undone.
See for details:
A file system that was case sensitive becomes case insensitive after you install an update for the .NET Framework 2.0
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929110
This problem occurs because a problem in the original .NET Framework 2.0 Setup sets the value of the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControl
so in short it seems like you only need to set the switch and you are done, no need to install iis or .net for that purpose.
