Hello,
I am writing a plug-in for Atlassian JIRA and am attempting to get a build number into the final manifest of the plug-in JAR file that is run in JIRA. I am using the codehaus buildnumber-maven-plugin to generate a build number and the maven-jar-plugin to add items into the manifest. These are working successfully and the resulting MANIFEST.MF file has what I need. The problem is that when the plug-in is installed in JIRA, it is transformed and I lose those headers, so at runtime, I do not have access to them. I could fix this by embedding another file in the JAR with the build information but I would like to avoid that if possible. In tracking down this issue, I came across Felix, which is used in the Atlassian Plugin SDK, and am wondering if there aren't some instructions that I can pass to Felix that will result in getting manifest items into the transformed plugin. Thanks, Mike
