'URI for third party dependency
My Question:
Is it possible to get a Uri from an import of a third party dependency?Question Context:
I am trying to get a list of classes accessed with the following.import com.name.*
In the context in which I want to use it, I will not be able to use third party dependencies. I do however need to find all classes associated with a third party dependency import.
I have found one such answer to my issue in the following code, provided by the user tirz.
public static List<Class<?>> getClassesForPackage(final String pkgName) throws IOException, URISyntaxException {
final String pkgPath = pkgName.replace('.', '/');
final URI pkg = Objects.requireNonNull(ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource(pkgPath)).toURI();
final ArrayList<Class<?>> allClasses = new ArrayList<Class<?>>();
Path root;
if (pkg.toString().startsWith("jar:")) {
try {
root = FileSystems.getFileSystem(pkg).getPath(pkgPath);
} catch (final FileSystemNotFoundException e) {
root = FileSystems.newFileSystem(pkg, Collections.emptyMap()).getPath(pkgPath);
}
} else {
root = Paths.get(pkg);
}
final String extension = ".class";
try (final Stream<Path> allPaths = Files.walk(root)) {
allPaths.filter(Files::isRegularFile).forEach(file -> {
try {
final String path = file.toString().replace('/', '.');
final String name = path.substring(path.indexOf(pkgName), path.length() - extension.length());
allClasses.add(Class.forName(name));
} catch (final ClassNotFoundException | StringIndexOutOfBoundsException ignored) {
}
});
}
return allClasses;
}
The problem I have with the code above is that where final URI pkg is assigned. This works with a package that exists within the project, but if an import for a third party dependency is used this throws a NullPointerException. Is it possible to make this code work for third party dependencies? Might this require some reference to an .m2 folder or other library resource?
