question

Hi,

why do i get different results in
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
when jaring with ant compared to the raw jar?

1. Doing it raw (jar cmf mymanifest ...):

   Manifest-Version: 1.0
   Main-Class: xyClass
   Created-By: 1.3.0 (IBM Corporation)
   Class-Path: xy.jar

2. Doing it with ant (<jar ... manifest="" ..>):

   Main-Class: xyClass
   Class-Path: xy.jar

There is no version and creator inserted when using ant.

any idea?


thanks, Marcel

Because Ant wouldn't touch a user supplied MANIFEST.MF. Is this a
feature request 8^)?
