Eclipse allows in their export dialog to package the .jar files that a project depends on into a single resulting jar. Here you can see a example result:
How can I, as a non-eclipse user, take advantage of this functionality? In my case I must load jar files dynamically from the classpath into the classpath at runtime (I am creating an all-platform SWT application), so this technology would be perfect for me.
I already checked out all projects on maven central in the package org.eclipse.jdt, but none of the projects contains the relevant classes.
Is there a project somewhere that I can use to do this, as a non-eclipse user, and also in a non-jar (dev environment) context?
Look at One-Jar: http://one-jar.sourceforge.net/
I used it for a bit, but found I could not easily use it for web start applications.
