jar:tldr:07217

The command "jar -xvf ${file-jar}" is used to extract the contents of a Java Archive (JAR) file in a Unix/Linux command line environment.

Here is the breakdown of the command:

• "jar" is the command-line tool used to create, manipulate, and extract Java Archive files.
• "-x" stands for "extract" and indicates that we want to extract the contents of the JAR file.
• "-v" stands for "verbose" and specifies that we want the output to be displayed in a verbose manner, i.e., it will provide detailed information about the extraction process.
• "-f" is used to specify the JAR file that we want to extract.
• "${file-jar}" is a placeholder representing the actual name or path of the JAR file. The "${}" syntax is often used in Unix/Linux to reference the value of a variable.

So, when you execute this command and replace "${file-jar}" with the actual JAR file name or path, it will extract all the contents of the JAR file to the current directory.
