Unpack the jar file and then use a decompiler such as <a href="http://jode.sourceforge.net/" rel="ugc">http://jode.sourceforge.net/</a>

Hey, if you've got Winzip, it decompresses/unpacks the JAR file. &nbsp;To decompile class files in the JAR file, follow CEHJ's suggestion at <a href="http://jode.sourceforge.net" rel="ugc">http://jode.sourceforge.net</a>

Hi,<br />
<br />
I like the JAD decompiler. <a href="http://kpdus.tripod.com/jad.html" rel="ugc">http://kpdus.tripod.com/jad.html</a><br />
<br />
Look also at <a href="http://www.jadcentral.com/" rel="ugc">http://www.jadcentral.com/</a>&nbsp;for decompilers and GUIs...<br />

I prefer the iartmirko answer because with JadCentral I don't need SDK.

Decompile JAR file ?

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
