>You have this entry in the dist target:
>
><property name="dist"  location="classes"/>
>
> and
> 
><jar jarfile="${dist}/MyProject.jar" basedir="${build}"/>
>
>Typically, the jar should only contain the resources it needs. 
> What you're doing here is putting the jar (the result from 
>the dist target) into the classes directory.  You can't 
>jar/tar/war/ear/zip a directory AND have the resulting archive 
>created in that same location.
>
>Most builds have a build directory associated with them.  So 
>src would get compiled into classes (so 
>src/com/package/foo.java would wind up in 
>classes/com/package/foo.class).  Similarly, the "build" 
>directory would contain the results of the artifact build up 
>(your jar and maybe a tar containing scripts needed to run 
>your classes in their jarred format).

>After your previous mail I had just seen the dist option.

>Using the dist option is does create the jar! Conversely to
