List contents of multiple jar files

Question

I am searching for a .class file inside a bunch of jars.

jar tf abc.jar 

works for one file. I tried

find -name \"*.jar\" | xa         


        

Answer 1

Here's what I use in Cygwin. It supports section headers per jar file as requested above.

find . -name "*.jar" \
 -exec echo ======\ {}\ ====== \; \
 -exec /c/Program\ Files/Java/jdk1.7.0_45/bin/jar.exe tf {} \; | less

For *nix, drop the ".exe":

find . -name "*.jar" \
 -exec echo ======\ {}\ ====== \; \
 -exec jar tf {} \; | less
