A friend of mine is currently developing a program to manage Java project resources (jars and others) called "gc resource repository" (gc-rr):
http://dev.guglhupf.net/commons/rr/index.html Some of the features are: * Central resource repository to share resources between multiple projects. * Needed resource are downloaded and stored in a local repository. * Dependencies between resources are solved. * Setup the classpath with all needed resources (jars). * Start java progams with the needed resources. * Ant integration to setup the classpath. * Modular ant build script support * Eclipse classpath builder to setup the classpath in eclipse. You may want to take a look at it. It is distributed under the Apache License, and I guess I could convince Rene Pirringer (the main developer of gc-rr) to contribute it to Apache Harmony if this is desired.
