Jar Task: Manifest Class-Path entry ignored.

           Summary: Jar Task: Manifest Class-Path entry ignored.
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.4.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


A combination of odd features of jar and the ant jar task cause the manifest 
Class-Path entry to be ignored.

When I use jar(jdk1.3.1) to create a jar with a manifest the Class-Path entry 
is ignored unless it is specified before a Name entry.

Ant displays an error message if a Class-Path entry is included before a Name 
entry.

This means it is not possible to add a class-path entry in the manifest! This 
makes it very difficult to write build scripts which bundle libraries in ear 
files.
