java-programmer, Jar file exploring Hi,
I want to read files and direcotories under a specific directory in a jar
file. In this way I can explore
the jar file interactively. The jar file contains thousands of files and has
no index.
So it is impractical to enumerate entries then filter them.
How can I do this? Thanks.

java-programmer >> Jar file exploring Given that the JAR file format is such that the files can appear in any
order at all, you have no choice but to enumerate the entries.
