Hi all, I created a jar file using the following ANT script <manifestclasspath property="jar.classpath" jarfile="${bin.dir}/${jar.app.name}" maxparentlevels="0"> <classpath refid="main.class.path" /> </manifestclasspath> <target name="jar"> <mkdir dir="${build.dir}/lib/isp"/> <mkdir dir="${build.dir}/lib/jasper"/> <copy todir="${build.dir}/lib/jasper"> <fileset dir="${lib.jasper.dir}"> <include name="**/*.jar" /> </fileset> </copy> <copy todir="${build.dir}/lib/isp"> <fileset dir="${lib.isp.dir}"> <include name="**/*.jar" /> </fileset> </copy> <jar jarfile="${bin.dir}/${jar.app.name}" index="true" basedir="${classes.dir}" excludes="lib/mytest.jar " > <manifest> <attribute name="Main-Class" value="${main.class}" /> <attribute name="Class-Path" value="${jar.classpath}" /> </manifest> </jar> </target> The resulting jar file has the following MANIFEST.MF entry.
