You're the Unix guru... :) I suspect it'd be a one-liner to do something with 'find' and 'setenv CLASSPATH'.... right?

Sorry for not answering the question... oops.

Nice, but note this doesn't quite seem to solve the problem Mike described:
this tells which JAR file IN THE CLASSPATH will provide the
required class, not which JAR file on your disk contains some
desired class.

So how many of you have �borrowed� some code from a mail list or web site only to get a reference to a package you can�t find?



Or even the simplest java.* packages��now which jar was that in��



Is there a tool that makes this easier? If I had a tool that scanned all the jar files in my filesystem and built an index from the manifests it finds, that would be a good start, using Lucene to index the contents of the jar files would be better. You can�t even to go java.sun and ask, �which jar is java.security.* in?�



BTW the source of this rant/query is �which jar is java.security.* in?�
