Hi Bolton Mcfdden,

 

It is possible to extract files from rar files using Java. The library you need is JUnrar.

 

The below link gives sample code on how to unzip a RAR file using Java and JUnrar.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

The Chilkat RAR for .NET and C++ are bundled in downloads that contain all Chilkat classes
(Both free and non-free). Make sure you select the download that matches your .NET Framework or VC++ version (6/7/8).

If running on x64, download the ActiveX, .NET, or C++ builds marked specifically for x64.

Chilkat Java Library Downloads for Windows, Linux, and MAC OS X are attached.

Thanking you.
