Ken:
jlink is supposed to do what you propose. What is it not doing right? What are the symptoms of the failure?
You may be having trouble with manifest entries because there are some hacks to deal with those. And, working with compressed files could be improved. Let us know your details.
Cheers,
Matt
P.S. I submitted the task based on code written by Patrick Beard. Both Patrick and I would be pleased to see others cleaning and improving jlink.
Several weeks ago I posed a question about jlink, but never got an answer, so let me try again...
Suppose I have two jars: A.jar, B.jar
I can "unjar" A.jar and B.jar into a temp directory, then "jar" the temp directory to create "C.jar" that is the merge of A.jar and B.jar
Or, I can use jlink task and merger them.
But, when I use jlink I don't get the same thing as the "unjar - jar" combination.
Am I mis-understanding what jlink is supposed to do?
