In MSI installer javaws.jar contains all the java code used by 
IcedTea-Web. Just note, that javaws.exe provides 
"-Ditw.userdata=%LOCALAPPDATA%\ojdkbuild\java-1.8.0-openjdk-[version]\webstart" 
argument to javaws.jar. So running javaws.jar directly this argument 
needs to be used too, or, alternatively, config files in that directory 
can be changed manually.
