Hello Patrik,
I guess there is no sexy way to reuse an existing MANIFEST.MF file.
You can use the following workaround to reuse your manifest:

import java.util.jar.Manifest
import org.gradle.api.tasks.bundling.GradleManifest
...
archive_jar.manifest = new GradleManifest(new Manifest(new File('./ META-INF/MANIFEST.MF').newInputStream()))
...

I know, not sexy but it works. Maybe in future grails releases there is a better way to reuse Manifest files!? Hans?

regards,
René Gröschke

Newbie question...

I'm new to gradle (and groovy) but what I've seen so far looks really nice.
:jumping:

My question is;

Is there an easy way to re-use existing manifest files for a project.

Some of my projects are Eclipse plugin project in which the manifest is managed in the dev env i.e. add new plugin dependencies and/or exporting new
packages.

So if I build with gradle I would really like to include the existing
manifests instead of generating new ones...and of course use them as base for generating build classpath but I saw that this is planned for later
releases....

Regards
Patrik
