    I tried Test.class.getProtectedDomain().getSourceCode().getLocation() but it returns the jar location. I tried Test.class.getResource("Test.class"). It returns a correct location, but when i construct an input stream to the File object it throws FileNotFoundException strangely. I tried Test.class.getClassLoader().getResource("Test.class") and it returns null. Plz help.

    Even with practice a goal is needed, a reason to do it.
    The jar is a zip. Unzip it.

    Isnt unzipping expensive? Also i never heard of this method. I think files within a zip can have their locations identified cuz i printed the resource (.class) location successfully but file not found...

    @RcExtract Do you care about expensive when fetching a class file that has no further use?

    I like ur quick response. Well i may use the getResource in my plugin, but i would like to keep it secret.

    Getting the class file is scetchy at least. Same for some other threads you made.
