JDependency is an API and application which allows to analyse Java packages dependencies.

Usage as an Application

Double-click on the jar of the jDependency-ui.jar Application.

Usage as a library

Dependencies on jar files

Look for the JarDependencies class.

   File libJarFile = <The reference Jar File> (for example a library on which we don't want to be dependant on)
   JarDependencies lib = new JarDependencies();
   depend.setFile(libJarFile);

   File jarFile = <The Jar File on which we want to see the dependencies>
   JarDependencies depend = new JarDependencies();
   depend.setFile(jarFile);

   // looking for dependencies
   // isDepending is true if jarFile depends on libJarFile
   boolean isDepending = depend.isDependingOn(lib);

   // printing dependencies
   DependencyPrinter.printDependencies(depend, lib);

Dependencies on packages

   File libJarFile = <The reference Jar File> (for example a library on which we don't want to be dependant on)
   JarDependencies lib = new JarDependencies();
   depend.setFile(libJarFile);

   File jarFile = <The Jar File on which we want to see the dependencies>
   JarDependencies depend = new JarDependencies();
   depend.setFile(jarFile);

   // isDepending is true if jarFile depends on the package org.my. in libJarFile, or any
   // of its sub-packages
   boolean isDepending = depend.isDependingOn(lib, "org.my.package", false);

   // isDepending2 is true if jarFile depends on the package org.my. in libJarFile strictly (not any
   // of its sub-packages)
   boolean isDepending2 = depend.isDependingOn(lib, "org.my.package", true);
