                 Key: DISCOVERY-9
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISCOVERY-9
             Project: Commons Discovery
          Issue Type: Wish
    Affects Versions: 0.4
         Environment: all
            Reporter: Ravi Luthra
            Priority: Minor


This is a request for more code samples. In particular I am having trouble 
finding code samples that let you find multiple implementations of a class, and 
instantiating them. What I am trying to do is populate a JTabbedPane with a 
bunch of Components that are found at runtime based on the jars in the 
classpath. The jars will have a META-INF/service folder with a file using the 
interface name (with package name). Right now I am easily able to load one 
class implementing this interface, but cannot seem to find the correct 
documentation for loading multiple class implementations of the interface. It 
seems this is one area that is missing.

Another thing that would be cool is a general way to search a given package (in 
all jars) for classes that implement or extend a specific interface/class. This 
would remove the annoyance of creating service folder and other things. If that 
isn't in the scope of commons-discovery then never mind. I still think it would 
be bad-ass.
