Description:
Relates to this post:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg104817.html
When using the -standalone jar / war mojos and looked into the artifact that
they produced, I noticed that the META-INF directory contained mulitple
MANIFEST.MF entries. I know that the zip archive format supports this, but I'm
worried that it may produce undesirable behaviour as two of the manifest
entries define a Main-Class. I'm uncertain how a winner is determined when
-jar is the only option provided via command line.
Additionally, for users who unzip an archive to make modifications, they could
potentially blow-away the desirable manifest when manifests are overwritten to
the same location on disk, thus crippling the executable jar / war
functionality.
