> Update the MANIFEST.MF, in which the (main) key 'Class-Path' can be specified. The value of this key should hold the path's to the other requered jars. For Ivy this means, it should reference to the 'commons-cli.jar' (and maybe other / extra jars in the future).
> To make the jar runnable the key 'Main-Class' is needed, which makes it possible to just 'run the jar', as:
> java  -jar ivy-core.jar
> No additional path to the class 'org.apache.ivy.Main' is needed any more.
> WARNING: Check this patch 'patch_build.xml_add_main_and_path_20070708.txt' the key 'Class-Path' does (only) work if the created artifact is in it's build/articaft directory! I didn't check how ivy-core.jar is normally distributed (where it's dependencies lib is). Probalbly there should be a small change of the referenced path here.
