As Olivier says, look at IJavaProject.  In particular, setRawClasspath() and 
getRawClasspath().

There are unfortunately no APIs to directly modify the classpath: you have 
to get it, edit it, and then set the new one.  Be cautious of the potential 
for threading problems, if more than one thread at a time is doing that.
