I doubt it. This is because Java doesn't really care about the jarfiles
themselves, only the cl***** which they contain. It will only try opening
them
whenever it needs to access a certain class.
So I think that the only way to be sure is manually listing the classpath,
then
grabbing all file entries and finally start checking up if those exist.
