Is it possible to find all classes or interfaces in a given package? (Quickly looking at e.g. Package, it would seem like no.)
It is very possible, but without additional libraries like Reflections
it is hard...
It is hard because you haven't full instrument for get class name.
And, I take the code of my ClassFinder
class:
package play.util;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.jar.JarEntry;
import java.util.jar.JarFile;
/**

public class FileClassFinder {
private JarFile file;
private boolean trouble;
public FileClassFinder(String filePath) {
try {
file = new JarFile(filePath);
} catch (IOException e) {
trouble = true;
}
}
public List findClasses(String pkg) {
ArrayList classes = new ArrayList<>();
Enumeration entries = file.entries();
while (entries.hasMoreElements()) {
JarEntry cls = entries.nextElement();
if (!cls.isDirectory()) {
String fileName = cls.getName();
String className = fileName.replaceAll("/", ".").replaceAll(File.pathSeparator, ".").substring(0, fileName.lastIndexOf('.'));
if (className.startsWith(pkg)) classes.add(className.substring(pkg.length() + 1));
}
}
return classes;
}
}
