How to retrieve the source code from a jnlp file

Question

I have downloaded a few jnlp files from the oracle tutorials in swing available on their website which they give as examples. While they run run but is there also any way that I can retrieve the source code from them? It would really help me to understand their examples better.

Thanx in advance!!

Answer 1

Given a .jnlp file from The Java Tutorials , focus on two Java Web Start attributes:

codebase="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorialJWS/uiswing/components/ex6"
main-class="components.ColorChooserDemo"

And search for the main-class name on the codebase site, for example

http://www.google.com/#q=site:oracle.com+ColorChooserDemo

Voilà, first hit !

Bonus feature: most example sections have the HTML name , eg .
