As the other gurus told you, most of what you want is already in there out of
the box, what is missing is the guarantee to handle download interruption
problems nice in a guaranteed way.
You could "bake" this functionality into an OSGi framework by creating a URL
handler. This handler could download the remote file, restart with the
Content-Range option if you run into an error, and at the same time provide the
data at the same time to the framework. E.g.
download:http://www.acme.com/mybybdle.jar
Kind regards,
