This works for me.

First, get a basic ClassPath.  If you've got a ProjectMember, then you
can do that by ProjectPath.getBasicPath(ProjectMember).

            FileObject[] fos = FileUtil.fromFile(new File(jarFile));
            for (int fosNum = 0; fosNum < fos.length; ++fosNum) {
                PathResource pathR = ProjectPath.createResource(fos[fosNum], project);
                cp.add(pathR);
            }
