Yoav:
Are you creating a staging directory? If your "createWar" target creates
a staging directory you can copy whichever .jars that you want into the
WEB-INF\lib directory that you choose to put there. Then call the war task,
and set the base directory to the staging directory and it will build a war
with what you have placed in the WEB-INF\lib. Note you also will need to
include a <copy> task for the Image, html, etc files. Here is a portion of
my build.xml. I hope it helps.
<target name="buildWar" depends="jspc">
<mkdir dir="${war.staging.dir}WEB-INF/lib" />
<copy todir="${war.staging.dir}/WEB-INF/lib">
<fileset dir="${lib.dir}" />
</copy>
<copy todir="${war.staging.dir}}/WEB-INF/lib">
<fileset dir="${build.dir}" />
<exclude name="this.jar" />
<exclude name="that.jar" />
<exclude name="theOther.jar" />
</copy>
<war warfile="${war.file}"
webxml="${web.xml}"
basedir="${war.staging.dir}"
excludes="*.war"
update="true"
duplicate="preserve" />
</target>

Subject: RE: war task question
Hi,
Thanks. I'd read that documentation (and anything else I could find on
the war task), as well as searched the list archives, prior to posting
my question.
One problem is that I have my build results in a jar file, not class
files. I don't know anything to go into the /WEB-INF/classes directory
of the war file. I don't want to use a nested <classes> element inside
my .war task. I want the jar files from my build directory, as well as
(some of) those from my lib directory, to go into the /WEB-INF/lib
directory of the war file.
Any ideas, suggestions welcome.
