I second Manfred's suggestion, if using the POM works for your use case. I'm sure other projects have invented their own version of this, but just in case it's useful, here's some code to ease working with POMs: https://github.com/scijava/scijava-common/blob/scijava-common-2.38.2/src/main/java/org/scijava/util/POM.java#L163-L170 You can easily obtain the POM associated with a given Class, and extract whatever information you desire via XPath queries.
