Java BitTorrent Library

Are there any decent BitTorrent libraries for Java? I need to program a simple torrent client, but it would be great if I did not have to write everything from scratch.

Three Rings Snark is a very lightweight bitorrent library that will give you the basic torrent features.

It was originally written by Mark Wilaard. The github source can be found here https://github.com/akerigan/born-again-snark

I created Bitlet Fork on Github.

This is LGPLed and it is faster than ttorent.

Azureus (now called Vuze ) gives you an API plugin. Using this API, you can connect your code to Azureus. Run it in your program and listen / respond to its events.

Azureus is written in Java - most likely not "simple", but quite "decent" :)

Addendum to the answer from jjnguy: The code seems to be located at http://code.google.com/p/snark/ , and not in the repo provided in the link you provided.

I did not use it, but a Google search showed YAIRCC . Describes himself as a "light library and Java Bittorrent client library."
