You reverse engineer EJB components located in .JAR files using the following method (the same method applies to Class and Java directories):

1. Select Language > Reverse Engineer Java to dispay the Reverse Java dialog box.
2. Select Archive from the Reverse list in the Selection page.
3. Click the Add button.

   A standard Open dialog box is displayed.

   Note:

   You can click the Remove button to remove a selection from the list.

4. Select the items you want to reverse and click Open.

   The Reverse Java dialog box displays the items you selected.

5. Click the Options tab to display the options page, then select the Reverse Engineer Deployment Descriptor check box.
   
   
6. Click OK.

   A progress box is displayed. If the model in which you are reverse engineering already contains data, the Merge Models dialog box is displayed.

   For more information on merging models, see the Comparing and Merging Models chapter in the Core Features Guide.

7. Click OK.

   The Reverse page of the Output window displays the changes that occurred during reverse and the diagram window displays the updated model.
