getting a java source back from the database

[dude123r24]

Is there any way to get a java class file from the Oracle DataBase? I loaded .class file using loadjava, and I would like to get this .class object back because I need to have a copy of the this .class object before I override it by loading the a changed version of the same .class again.

Use dbms_java.longname function to get back the java class.
