------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2002-05-31 01:56 -------
The <ejbjar> task supports adding two methods of adding manifests to the
generated jars. 

1. <ejbjar> will automatically pickup manifest files which are associated with
the deployment descriptors <ejbjar> is processing. The association will depend
on the naming scheme you are using. If you are using descriptor naming, eg your
descriptor is Bean-ejb-jar.xml, the manifest will be Bean-manifest.mf. For the
other naming schemes, where the desciptor has the vanilla name ejb-jar.xml, the
manifest will be named manifest.mf. In all cases the manifest file should be
colocated with the desriptor

2. You can specify a manifest attribute in the <ejbjar> task itself identifiying
a file to be used as the manifest for all generated jars. 

Where both methods are used the first takes precedence.

The effect of specifying these manifests is to add the manifest to the generic
jar which is subsequently fed into the vendor specific tool (ejbc in weblogic's
case). I'm pretty sure that earlier versions of ejbc did not propagate this
manifest into the generated output jar.

I'd suggest trying out the next beta (1.5 Beta2)

And finally, just to clear up a misconception, <ejbjar> is not strictly
considered an extension of <jar>.
