Question

Where do I get the source code for com.sun.xml.internal package?

java

Solution

I don't know where you can download it, but you can view it at several places on the web, like grepcode or docjar.

If you are using Eclipse then I can recommend JD Eclipse which will decompile the byte code back into source code so you can read it and follow along. You'll lose comments and some other stuff, but it works pretty well.

Problem

Where do I get the source code for com.sun.xml.internal package? It is part of the JDK 7 but its source files are not located in the $JAVA_HOME/src.zip . Generally the JDK souce files are located there but for this case are not. UPDATE: To answer my own question you can download all OpenJDK source by using executing this and then linking to that source folder in Eclipse: ``` cat > subprojects.md5 << EOF && c99a63dfaf2b2f8cc549e65b790a2e7a corba.tar.bz2 d15561707ce64419f36c18e4fba6cbbe hotspot.tar.bz2 5b32371928b7aa67646b560e5c89dcde jaxp.tar.bz2 05f7c3c91f3a6a38316bb4f406798b61 jaxws.tar.bz2 07223640c22b3ea75f3df81876622ba5 langtools.tar.bz2 6d737d1623b83a7acca8c18d0e08dd3d jdk.tar.bz2 d5e109b7e2b2daab5874d650293321c8 nashorn.tar.bz2 EOF for subproject in corba hotspot jaxp jaxws langtools jdk nashorn; do wget -c http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/${subproject}/archive/jdk8u66-b17.tar.bz2 \ -O ${subproject}.tar.bz2 done && md5sum -c subprojects.md5 && for subproject in corba hotspot jaxp jaxws langtools jdk nashorn; do mkdir -pv ${subproject} && tar -xf ${subproject}.tar.bz2 --strip-components=1 -C ${subproject} done ```
