Updating the Manifest on a Dynamic List of Jars
I'm trying to update the manifest file on a dynamic set of jars and unsure how to make this happen.
During my build process I create a bunch of EJB jars in a directory called "jars".
I know want to go threw all the jars and call the ant task of:
<jar
basedir="${jar.dir}"
jarfile="${jar.dir}/MyEjb.jar"
excludes="**/*"
update="true">
<manifest>
<attribute
name="Class-Path"
value="${project.manifest.classpath}"/>
</manifest>
</jar>
but the <jar> task requires me to specify the name of my jarfile. I don't want to have to know in advance all the jars that are going to be in that directory and have a separate <jar> task for each one. Is there a way for ant to determine all the jars and interate over them using this task?
Thanks,
Jordan
