I am using eclipse IDE and want to edit the attached source file of the jar file. For doing this i downloaded the src.zip and attached the file, but it is opening as a .class though I am able to read the file (which is a .class file) but i also want to edit the file.
Why I am not allowed to edit it? how to open an attached file with .java extension not .class extension.
thanks in advance
That’s not possible. In order to edit the source, you have to unpack the JAR and create an eclipse project, from which you can then create a JAR with the modified code.
