Note  This solution only works for Mac and  nix users   I also tried to find Jad with no luck  My quick solution was to download MacJad that contains jad  Once you downloaded it you can find jad in  where-you-downloaded-macjad  MacJAD Contents Resources jad

If you happen to have both a bash shell and jad   JAR  your jar file name  unzip -d  JAR tmp  JAR pushd  JAR tmp for f in  find   -name    class    do     jad -d   dirname  f  -s java -lnc  f done popd   I might be a tiny  tiny bit off with that  but it should work more or less as advertised   You should end up with  JAR tmp containing your decompiled files

I have had reasonable success with a tool named  frustratingly   JD  Java Decompiler    I have found it better than most decompilers when dealing with classes compiled for Java 5 and higher  Unfortunately  it can still have some hiccups where JAD would normally succeed

First of all  it s worth remembering that all Java archive files   jar  war etc     are all basically just fancy zip files  with a few added manifests and metadata   Second  to tackle this problem I personally use several tools which handle this problem on all levels    Jad   Jadclipse while working in IDE for decompiling  class files WinRAR  my favorite compression tool natively supports Java archives  again  see first paragraph   Beyond Compare  my favorite diff tool  when configured correctly can do on-the-fly comparisons between any archive file  including jars  Well worth a try    The advantage of all the aforementioned  is that I do not need to hold any other external tool which clutters my work environment  Everything I will ever need from one of those files can be handled inside my IDE or diffed with other files natively
