A solution could be to include CP jar files as xdoclet class comments, but then what's the 'real' advantage on a plain Manifest.mf ?
Andrew, i've tryed ant <manifest> task, but then it seems to have some sort of limit on line lenght so a long cp is printed on several lines and i actually don't know how to solve this.

We do it manually in the <manifest> when building the EJB <jar>. I have not explored doing it any more elegant way myself. Yeah, it is a bit of a pain to do this manually and if you add a new dependency to your project and forget to add it to the manifest it blows up.
If I was feeling more pain from it, I would certainly look for a solution but at this time things are stable and work so I leave well enough alone :)

I am facing exactly the same problem, and have been trying to find solutions using xdoclet or ant tasks. I found a way to do it using ant, but it's ugly and brittle. I'm very surprised that there isn't more information available on this topic. How are other people building ejb jar manifests for EARs which include non-ejb jars which must appear in the ejb jar's manifest classpath?
I just use Ant's <manifest> task, then specify the file which that generated in the appropriate attribute of the jar/war/ear task. Admittedly, I'm not producing the Class-Path: value automatically from the path I've defined for javac to use, but then again I don't use it when I'm copying the jars into my ear either. Perhaps someone (Erik?) knows a way to do it? There's not so many that it's particularly hard to maintain, though.

Hello, i was reading xdoclet in action, nice book! but currently i need to compile a Class-Path: element in an ear Manifest.mf. Since currently i cannot figure out how this would be possible with Xdoclet, i was wondering if XD is the right tool to do this task and if yes, how could i do. Thx in advance, kiuma
