Hi, sorry to bother you guys again, but as above. Any ways to print out everything(every lines of code) that is on another class?

Re: println class
Not possible directly.
But any way if that class is providing all its code as string through toString method then you can print.
Re: println class
by importing the class and printing the methods directly?Originally Posted by jnthakar
Re: println class
You could print the method signatures, but not the actual method content. If you want to print the whole file you need to make sure its available as a .java file and that you can read it, load the file in and just read it line by line and print it, but I take it that's not what you want.
Any chance you can narrow down to what exactly it is you want?

Re: println class
Either have the .java source file available, or a handy Java Bytecode decompiler. Note that I think due to what is actually available in compiled form (variable names, code logic, any other code obfuscation that might be implemented by the compiler), you won't get back the exact code that was originally written, and you definately won't get back any comment information (Javadocs are questionable)
Re: println class
okay.. what i wanna do is to pass in what is inside another class(the actual content) or or a method of the another class(the method's content) into a string. then use the string to upload to the server using my client api.

Re: println class
You would really need to have the .java file for the source available for this or as helloworld says, use a decompiler. Getting method content can not be done through reflection. You can however invoke a method and get the return value.

Re: println class
