A jar URL is a special type of URL that allows JAR * files on remote systems to be accessed. It has the form: *
* jar: for example:
*
* jar:http://www.urbanophile.com/java/foo.jar!/com/urbanophile/bar.class
*
* That example URL points to the file /com/urbanophile/bar.class in the
* remote JAR file http://www.urbanophile.com/java/foo.jar. The HTTP
* protocol is used only as an example. Any supported remote protocol
* can be used.
*
* This class currently works by retrieving the entire jar file into a
* local cache file, then performing standard jar operations on it.
* (At least this is true for the default protocol implementation).
*
* @version 0.1
