Forgot to reply on this.
The solution you are proposing seems to be as good as manually
specifying the dependencies to me. I figured out the dependencies by
just grepping for import statements in the code. It worked for now.

Thanks for your help anyway. I hope I will be able to use javahelper
in some other project.
