Jim, UnpackContent does just that. It does not write to an external directory.

Is it possible to unpack the jar in the flow, keeping the results as new flowfiles in the output stream?

Can the ExecuteStreamCommand be configured to run the equivalent of jar -xf ${flowfile} and will that automatically direct each output file to a new flowfile, or does ESC need to be told to direct each output file from jar standard out to the Success path out of ESC? Thank you in advance for any assistance.
