IF you really want to treat JAR files like directories, then please have a look at TrueZIP 7. Something like the following might be what you want:

URL url = ... // whatever
URI uri = url.toURI();
TFile file = new TFile(uri); // File-look-alike in TrueZIP 7
if (file.isDirectory) // true for regular directories AND JARs if the module truezip-driver-file is on the class path
    for (TFile entry : file.listFiles()) // iterate top level directory
         System.out.println(entry.getPath()); // or whatever
