m2 how to package a manifest file in a jar
Hi Everyone,
Maven jar is create the manifest file but is it possible to package an
existing file from the src directory. I need this to package an eclipse
plugin and it already has a manifest file.
Are there an special plugins to package eclipse plugins ?

There are some discussions last couple weeks to have a maven 2 plugin to
build eclipse PDE artifacts.
May be you can yell out loud, the person that has the plugin may speedup the
submission process to MOJO ;-)

If I remember correctly the Eclipse PDE creates a manifest file with custom information at
a fixed location. So in this case it is not possible to just move the manifest file.

Is there a reason you can't move it?? So many people on this list make
their lives "miserable" by ignoring Maven defaults/standards and
rigging things to fit their own layout. I find it easier to simply
adjust my projects to fit the expectations of Maven.
And yes, I believe you can configure the location of the MANIFEST.MF
file in the Jar plugin, but I'm not certain of the details.

Hi Wayne,
Thanks for responding for my question. my META-INF is in $basedir}
directory. is it possible to have manifest in a different location.
Thanks

Your manifest should be in:
src/main/resources/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
if you want it to end up in Jar-root/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

As far as I know there is no eclipse-plugin plugin. There is an OSGi bundle plugin at
http://mavenosgiplugin.berlios.de/ but that won't help you with the eclipse specific OSGI
enhencements like plugin.xml.
