(New Ant user. Apologies if this is doc'ed somewhere. I can't find it.) The "jar" attribute of the "Java" task indicates "must have a Main-Class entry in the manifest". The only way I've found to define the Main-Class is to first create my own manifest, then pass it to the "Jar" task.
It seems easier in my simple case that the "Jar" task could have something like a "mainclass" attribute, so that Ant could include it in the simple manifest that it creates. This would save me the step of creating the manifest first, simply to define the Main-Class. Did I understand things correctly? If this is a feature request, then obviously it's not a high priority one. Thanks. Jay -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
