Try out my JarMakefileGenerator utility; it's in the pack of reuseables
at http://tumu.home.mindspring.com/java/jcon/. It's still in the stage
of "real useful to me, might need to be generalized to be useful to you"
but it does automate compilation of large source trees with lots of
packages, and controls dependencies between packages too. I've been
using it every day here at work (I hack Java full-time :-) for months
now and find it a big time-saver for complex builds (my tree is 315
.java files strong at the moment).
Anyway, it's LGPLed so if it's close to what you need you can make it
fit (and send me the diffs if you like).
