Unfortunately there is not really any robust java reader/writer for
jpeg2000 around.
In the past I have been using JJ2000 but I gave up because of
performance/stability problems. You might wat to check it thought,
since you are basically interested in just getting metadata (if I
understood correctly your use case).

If you can go native there are alternative, free and commercial that
we can try to let you use.

Ciao,
Simone.
