    A .class file contains only 1 class. The class with the name specified. A jar file is just like a zip file. You need to extract it and look for all .class files

    Is it possible that class have different filename?
    I'm sorry but I'm not really a Java-dev, my project (in Mono) need to dynamically load a Java class/jar-file.
    Thanks.

    No it's not possible. And unless you're welling to make a decompiler, I can't see a point to what you're doing

    No, I just want to extend my application to dynamically load a plug-in made from Java through the help of IKVM.
    Here is my project.
    Anyway, thanks for the help.
