.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.LP
.LP
The \f3javap\fP command disassembles one or more class files. Its output depends on the options used. If no options are used, \f3javap\fP prints out the package, protected, and public fields and methods of the classes passed to it. \f3javap\fP prints its output to stdout.
.LP
.RS 3

options
Command\-line options.
.TP 3
classes
List of one or more classes (separated by spaces) to be processed for annotations (such as \f2DocFooter.class\fP). You may specify a class that can be found in the class path, by its file name (for example, \f2/home/user/myproject/src/DocFooter.class\fP), or with a URL (for example, \f2file:///home/user/myproject/src/DocFooter.class\fP).

For example, compile the following class declaration:
.LP
.nf
\f3
.fl
import java.awt.*;
.fl
import java.applet.*;
.fl
.fl
public class DocFooter extends Applet {
.fl
String date;
.fl
String email;
.fl
.fl
public void init() {
.fl
resize(500,100);
.fl
date = getParameter("LAST_UPDATED");
.fl
email = getParameter("EMAIL");
.fl
}
.fl
.fl
public void paint(Graphics g) {
.fl
g.drawString(date + " by ",100, 15);
.fl
g.drawString(email,290,15);
.fl
}
.fl
}
.fl
\fP
.fi
.LP

The output from \f3javap DocFooter.class\fP yields:
.LP
.nf
\f3
.fl
Compiled from "DocFooter.java"
.fl
public class DocFooter extends java.applet.Applet {
.fl
java.lang.String date;
.fl
java.lang.String email;
.fl
public DocFooter();
.fl
public void init();
.fl
public void paint(java.awt.Graphics);
.fl
}
.fl
\fP
.fi
.LP
.LP
The output from \f3javap \-c DocFooter.class\fP yields:
