I want to list the methods of the class files in the jar using the javap tool. How do I do it so that it lists the methods and members of all the class files in the jar. Right now I am able to do it for just one class at a time.
I am expecting something like if I say
javap java.lang.*
it should enlist the methods and members of all the classes in java.lang package. If javap is not capable of that, are there any such tools available?
#!/bin/bash
# Set the JAR name
jar=<JAR NAME>
# Loop through the classes (everything ending in .class)
for class in $(jar -tf $jar | grep '.class'); do
# Replace /'s with .'s
class=${class//\//.};
# javap
javap -classpath $jar ${class//.class/};
done
Even easier would be
JAR=<path to jarfile> \
javap -classpath $JAR $(jar -tf $JAR | grep "class$" | sed s/\.class$//)
First unzip the jar file, this will yield a series of directories for each package, then apply the javap command per directory.
So for example with tomcat you can unzip the catalina-balancer.jar file in webapps\balancer and then use
javap -classpath org\apache\webapp\balancer Rule
which gives
Compiled from "Rule.java"
interface org.apache.webapp.balancer.Rule{
public abstract boolean matches(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest);
public abstract java.lang.String getRedirectUrl();
}
If you need to do this for all the class files in a package you will need to write a script or program to walk the classpath and strip the .class from the filenames and pass it to javap.
(It would be fairly easy to write in perl/bash/java).
