But wouldn't that imply one could do so with a vanilla jar command (as
in from the command line)? I haven't looked at the java.util.jar API in
sometime...but I don't recall that being available. Of course, I
suppose an implementation could see the resource as a jar and do some
appropriate work...

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that in Ant 1.7 you will be able
to do this because the delete task will allow any resource, such as a
file in an archive.

Subject: AW: Removing a file from .jar file
I don't think you can delete the class file...but you can
certainly update the jar file with a new class or modified
class. To delete, you will probably need to unjar, delete the
file in question and rejar...

Hi !
How I can remove a file from a jar ?
I dont know another way neither ...
but you could define a macro for that.
