packaging lenya classes as JAR

["Gregor J. Rothfuss" <gr...@apache.org>]

i think we should modify our build slightly to combine all lenya classes 
into a lenya-version.jar, just like cocoon does. this would make it 
easier to expose lenya as an artifact for third party applications (1 
jar instead of dozens of class files)

the cocoon build does this:

   <!-- package the core -->
   <target name="package-core" depends="compile-core, block-roles">
     <jar jarfile="${build}/${name}.jar" manifest="${java}/Manifest.mf" 
index="true">
       <fileset dir="${build.dest}">
          <exclude name="**/Manifest.mf"/>
       </fileset>
     </jar>
     <!-- optionally add source files to the core jar -->
     <if>
       <istrue value="${include.sources-in-jars}"/>
       <then>
         <jar jarfile="${build}/${name}.jar" update="yes">
           <fileset dir="${java}">
             <include name="**/*.java"/>
           </fileset>
         </jar>
       </then>
     </if>
     <if>
       <istrue value="${include.sources-jars}"/>
       <then>
         <jar jarfile="${build}/${name}.src.jar">
           <fileset dir="${java}">
             <include name="**/*.java"/>
           </fileset>
         </jar>
       </then>
     </if>
   </target>

i think this dovetails with andreas' ideas about build modularization.
