If you use BCEL (or better yet ASM since it's lighter weight and faster), you don't need a classpath. Just the .class file at hand should tell you whether the class is abstract or not. You could also count the number of public void testXyz() methods, but only define in that one .class and not its super classes (at least not without a classpath to lookup the parents, but it's overkill IMHO). --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
