This is something that was discussed on core-libs-dev on a number of 
occasions. The summary is that JarFile needs a new API for this, 
versionedStream() was suggested, but it was kicked down the road for 
later in order deal with the fallout from adding MR JARs.

Since you have access to the code then look at 
jdk.internal.util.jar.VersionedStream for an example code of what I 
think you are looking for.
