I have a .jar file which is 1MB. Without debug info, it should be about 100KB. Now, how do I strip the debug info?

Oldtimers from the borland world might remember of a tool called tdstrip which would remove the symbol info from an .exe.

What is the equivalent in the Java world? I’m trying to do mobile development where a 1MB file is way too big.

I know that I could recompile and rebuild the .jar file without the debug info, but if you don’t have sources, etc, how do you go about doing it?
