I know that JBoss supports .WAR and .EAR files, but I've also seen a few .SAR files hanging around.
What exactly is a .SAR file and how does it differ from any other archive formats.
Are .SAR files JBoss specific?
Cheers,
Dave.

SAR files are Service ARchives. Like their abbreviated form, the simple *-service.xml file, they represent services that are to be loaded into the JBoss microkernel. These archives/files are specific to JBoss, but the services they represent are not necessarily so.

SARs that are JARs must have a META-INF/jboss-service.xml descriptor.
