It shouldn't be too hard to produce a dependency graph using
Graphviz's Dot notation. LinguineMaps already uses Graphviz for
visualizing Hibernate mappings, WSDL, Ant files, etc.
The drawback is that the official Dot renderer isn't Java, which
makes integration a bit more clumsy than it should be. Last time I
looked, there was no pure Java implementation, but maybe that has
changed in the meantime.
Personally, I render dot files using OmniGraffle Pro (Mac OS X only),
which produces the best looking output for simple stuff.
