Description spao001 2012-03-21 16:21:31 UTC

Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.0.1 (Build 201107282000)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_23
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 19.0-b09

Good Morning. 
It's possible to open the *.class files of the Jar libraries of a Project with an extern Java decompiler into the Editor?? 
So you can see not only the method signature, but all the code.
(Note: all this without attaching the sources to the library).
Thanks

This is a java-specific question. Trying to reassign to a better component.

In the NB 7.1 and older the view provides only method signatures.
In the NB 7.2 it provides also disassembled byte code as in javap.
Currently there is no support for pluggable decompiler, see issue #201691.
