Maven Shared Components: Jar Analyzer

The Maven Jar Analyzer components can be used to gather various pieces of information about a given JAR file. Currently, the following operations are supported:

Maven Artifact Identification

To determine the Maven artifact metadata for a particular JAR, the JarIdentificationAnalysis class is used. The class can be obtained through Plexus, or created standalone (in which case, see the class Javadoc for information on proper wiring).

Note that to use the class, you must first obtain a JarAnalyzer instance as instructed in its Javadoc.

The resulting information will be populated in the returned JarIdentification class.

Example usage: 

        JarAnalyzer jar = new JarAnalyzer( jarFile );
        JarIdenfitication jarIdenfitication;
        try
        {
            // instance must have been previously obtained through Plexus or created as instructed in its Javadoc
            jarIdenfitication = jarIdenfiticationAnalyzer.analyze( jar );
        }
        finally
        {
            jar.closeQuietly();
        }

        // continue to use jarIdenfitication or jar.getJarData()

Java Class Analysis

To determine the Java class metadata for a particular JAR, the JarClassesAnalysis class is used. The class can be obtained through Plexus, or created standalone (in which case, see the class Javadoc for information on proper wiring).

Note that to use the class, you must first obtain a JarAnalyzer instance as instructed in its Javadoc.

The resulting information will be populated in the returned JarClasses class.

Example usage: 

        JarAnalyzer jar = new JarAnalyzer( jarFile );
        JarClasses jarClasses;
        try
        {
            // instance must have been previously obtained through Plexus or created as instructed in its Javadoc
            jarClasses = jarClassAnalyzer.analyze( jar );
        }
        finally
        {
            jar.closeQuietly();
        }

        // continue to use jarClasses or jar.getJarData()
