According to this, I created a batch script to build jdk archives automatically.
The essential parts of the link are:
- Create working JDK directory ("C:\JDK" in this case)
- Download latest version of JDK from oracle (for example "jdk-7u7-windows-i586.exe")
- Download and install 7-zip (or download 7-zip portable version if you are not administrator)
- With 7-zip extract all the files from "jdk-[6-7]u?-windows-i586.exe" in directory "C:\JDK"
- In command shell (cmd.exe) do the following:
- change directory to directory C:\JDK.rsrc\JAVA_CAB10
- execute command: extrac32 111
- Unpack C:\JDK.rsrc\JAVA_CAB10\tools.zip with 7-zip
- In command shell (cmd.exe) do the following:
- change directory to C:\JDK.rsrc\JAVA_CAB10\tools\
- execute command: for /r %x in (*.pack) do .\bin\unpack200 -r "%x" "%~dx%~px%~nx.jar" (this will convert all pack files into jar)
- Copy whole directory and all subdir of c:\JDK.rsrc\JAVA_CAB10\tools" where you want your JDK to be and setup manually JAVA_HOME and PATH to point to your JDK dir and its BIN subdir.
