Hi Aradhya,

1. Unfortunately, the old Java library does not support OAuth 2.0. You can 
find a guide on migrating to the new 
library<https://github.com/googleads/googleads-java-lib/wiki/Migrating-from-the-old-Java-client-library>at
 the new library's GitHub page.
2. Yes, you can access the services without using the client library, but 
it is significantly more complicated, since you have to deal with SOAP 
directly. It is strongly recommended that you stick with one of the client 
libraries we provide.
3. If you do migrate to the new library, here's an 
example<https://github.com/googleads/googleads-java-lib/blob/master/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/auth/CreateAdWordsSessionWithoutPropertiesFile.java>of
 how to use it without using the ads.properties file.
4. The library will automatically refresh the access token for you.

Regards,
Mike, AdWords API Advisor
