How about a utility that performs a search through JAR files for a pattern? Something like grep for Jars. You could either have it search the contents of each file inside the jars by just searching through the binary contents of each file; or you could have it search the method signatures and constants of all the class files in a jar.
Example usage: # jargrep toString /usr/lib/*.jar /usr/lib/libfoo.jar: java.lang.Object.toString() -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
