A Java Card CAP file consists of a set of components. Each component describes a set of elements in the Java package defined, or an aspect of the CAP file. A complete CAP file must contain all of the required components specified in this chapter. Three components are optional: the Applet Component ( Section 6.5, Applet Component), Export Component ( Section 6.12, Export Component), and Debug Component ( Section 6.14, Debug Component). The Applet Component is included only if one or more Applets are defined in the package. The Export Component is included only if classes in other packages may import elements in the package defined. The Debug Component contains all of the data necessary for debugging a package.
The content of each component defined in a CAP file must conform to the corresponding format specified in this chapter. All components have the following general format:
Each component begins with a 1-byte tag indicating the kind of component. Valid tags and their values are listed in TABLE 6-1. The size item indicates the number of bytes in the info array of the component, not including the tag and size items.
The content and format of the info array varies with the type of component.
