Re: jar tool search utility...

["Brian Lee" <brian_a_lee@hotmail.com>]

I use the windows "Search" utility to search a directory (or my entire hard 
drive) for a class within a jar file (or zip or war or whatever).

Just right click on the folder and choose "Search". Then put the class name 
in the "Containing text" input. You may need to check "Advanced Options" and 
then "Search slow files".

It's found the jars for me many, many times.
