.PP
\fIoptions\fR
.RS 4
The command\-line options\&. See Options\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIclassfile\fR
.RS 4
One or more classes separated by spaces to be processed for annotations such as DocFooter\&.class\&. You can specify a class that can be found in the class path, by its file name or with a URL such as
\fBfile:///home/user/myproject/src/DocFooter\&.class\fR\&.
.RE
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The
\fBjavap\fR
command disassembles one or more class files\&. The output depends on the options used\&. When no options are used, then the
\fBjavap\fR
command prints the package, protected and public fields, and methods of the classes passed to it\&. The
\fBjavap\fR
command prints its output to
\fBstdout\fR\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"

\-?
.RS 4
Prints a help message for the
\fBjavap\fR
command\&.
.RE

\-version
.RS 4
Prints release information\&.
.RE
.PP
\-l
.RS 4
Prints line and local variable tables\&.
.RE
.PP

.RE
.PP
\-private
.br
\-p
.RS 4
Shows all classes and members\&.
.RE
.PP
\-J\fIoption\fR
.RS 4
Passes the specified option to the JVM\&. For example:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
\fBjavap \-J\-version\fR
\fBjavap \-J\-Djava\&.security\&.manager \-J\-Djava\&.security\&.policy=MyPolicy MyClassName\fR
 
.fi
.if n \{\

For more information about JVM options, see the command documentation\&.
.RE
.PP
\-s
.RS 4
Prints internal type signatures\&.
.RE
.PP
\-sysinfo
.RS 4
Shows system information (path, size, date, MD5 hash) of the class being processed\&.
.RE
.PP

Prints stack size, number of locals and arguments for methods\&.
.RE
.PP
\-classpath \fIpath\fR
.RS 4

.SH "EXAMPLE"
.PP
Compile the following
\fBDocFooter\fR
class:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4

.nf
\fBimport java\&.awt\&.*;\fR
\fBimport java\&.applet\&.*;\fR
\fB \fR
\fBpublic class DocFooter extends Applet {\fR
