Resolve class name from bytecode

Question

Is it possible to dig up a classes name from bytecode which is formed from the class\' source code?

The situation is this: I get a classes bytecode remotely from so

Answer 1

Just for completeness, in cases where the use of ASM5 library is acceptable, the following call could be used to obtain the class name from its byte representation.

public String readClassName(final byte[] typeAsByte) {
    return new ClassReader(typeAsByte).getClassName().replace("/", ".");
}
