Uniface is a development tool for creating business applications on Microsoft Windows, developed by Compuware.
A uar file contains a Uniface deployment archive. It is used to collect the application components and related resources required by a deployment, rather than serving as a general-purpose archive.
The format belongs to the Uniface deployment workflow and is intended to be handled by Uniface tools on Microsoft Windows.
Open or install a uar file with Uniface on Microsoft Windows. Use the Uniface deployment facilities to import or deploy the archive; it may not open as a readable document or with a standard archive utility.
If the file came from another Uniface installation, the compatible Uniface environment may be required to process its contents correctly.
A uar file is a deployment package, so it normally has no useful conversion to another file format. Use Uniface to deploy or extract the application resources it contains.
To create a new deployment package, use the Uniface deployment process to build another UAR file from the application and its resources.
