Cool! I've never done that with a jar (either the command line @ or
using includesfile which is new line delimited)
According to the archives (and I verified it), try $$ with your class
names. However, putting the double dollar sign in your file will break
the comman line version of jar...

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Subject: Jar not including file with "$" in name
Hi all,
I have a Jar include file with some 50 class files listed seperately.
Normally I invoke:
jar cvf file.jar @includeFile
In this includeFile is a subclass named something like 'Class$1.class'.
It
includes this file correctly when jar is invoked from the cmd line.
-------
HOWEVER, when I use the <jar> tag in my build.xml, this file gets
ignored. I
suspect ant thinks the '$' is the start of a variable.
My jar tag looks like this:
<jar jarfile="${jagdir}\java\classes\UPSSupport.jar"
basedir="${jagdir}\java\classes"
includesfile="${jagdir}\java\classes\JarFilelist"
/>
where JarFilelist is my jar includeFile.
Is there any way to gracefully escape the $ in the include file, or to
tell
ant that it's not a variable, or...
TIA
Butch
