/**
 * This abstract class represents a common superclass for implementations
 * of jar URL's.  A jar URL is a special type of URL that allows JAR
 * files on remote systems to be accessed.  It has the form:
 * <p>
 * jar:&lt;standard URL pointing to jar filei&gt;!/file/within/jarfile
 * <p> for example:
 * <p>
 * jar:http://www.urbanophile.com/java/foo.jar!/com/urbanophile/bar.class
 * <p>
 * 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.
 * <p>
 * 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).
