Pack Tool

The Intel® Dynamic Application Loader (Intel® DAL) Pack tool is used to: 
  • Package and sign Java* applet files. The Pack tool accepts a
    jeff
    file and a configuration file, and appends the manifest and policy section to the beginning of the file. Afterwards (unless the production flag is set) it signs it with a debug key and produces the final package, which can be uploaded to the Intel® Management Engine (Intel® ME) or Intel® Trusted Execution Engine (Intel® TXE) firmware to run on the virtual machine.
  • Extract manifest information from an existing signed package. 
  • Get the Platform ID (PID) of the current machine - supported beginning with Intel® ME 9.5, including CHV and Intel Atom® SoC (formerly codenamed Bay Trail-I).
  • Get the access control value for a specific
    jeff
    - supported beginning with Intel ME 11.0.
​Beginning with Release 1.16, the Pack tool can work as a stand-alone tool, if the following conditions are met:
  • ConfigurationLibrary.jar
    is included in the
    PackTool
    directory.
  • jeffp.jar
    is included in either the
    PackTool
    directory or under
    DALsdk\Plugins\Eclipse
    .
  • bhc.exe
    (Intel DAL compiler) for each Intel DAL generation is included in either the
    PackTool
    directory or under
    DALsdk\Platform\<PLATFORM>\ PlatformTools\BhcTool
    .
  • dal.jar
    for each DAL generation is included in either the
    PackTool
    directory or under
    DALsdk\Platform\<PLATFORM>\ PlatformTools
    .
