I want to write a command line java client program.

Why? Or rather, why would you want to use Java to
program a tool intended to be run from within the
command line, as opposed to a program with a GUI?

..And the program
need to use the jar package, but the package was located in the server.
I want the client program to download the jar package automarically at
the program startup.
I am not familiar with java. Could you tell me how to do it?

If it is the GUI'd program, it could be launched using
web-start, with the Jar file being downloaded lazily
(when 1st needed) or eagerly (at time of first run).

Web-start was designed to launch GUI'd, but not
command line based, client programs.
