james strachan commented on MDEP-158:
-------------------------------------
find all jars which contain a given resource by name. e.g. find all jars which
contain the exact resource name. Here's a few example resource query strings
that are kinda common...
* log4j.properties
* META-INF/spring/applicationContext.xmll
* META-INF/services/someInterface
I guess it'd be nice to look for Java classes too as well.
Someone might want wildcard support one day - but I'm totally happy with exact
name matches
> find a resource on the classpath and show which jar it comes from and the
> dependency path to it

> This would be amazingly useful for diagnosing which jars accidentally ship a
> log4j.properties file - say
