Jar file is just like a zipped file. You can open it using programs like
winRar

For both working with class files and working with jar files there are multiple tools you could use. Which one is appropriate depends on what you're trying to do - care to tell us about that?


Nikhilesh,

on your way in you may have missed that we have a policy on screen names here at JavaRanch. Basically, it must consist of a first name, a space, and a last name, and not be obviously fictitious. Since yours does not conform with it, please take a moment to change it, which you can do right here.
