What? I have a question and a problem with this part and I am a little stuck on it. So by typing: "jar cvf <NameOfFolder>.zip <NameOfFolder>" Does doing a jar use Ant? Does doing a jar zip the class and manifest? So, what is this build.xml file? Where did it come from? The way I was reading it, I was to use Ant and it would be created from using Ant. I take it, I am to copy this build.xml to a folder along with the class and jar it?
I am stuck in this one spot till I figure this one out. I can't stand not getting something right, and I will not skip over it.
