+<title>ManifestClassPath Task</title>
+</head>
+
+<body>
+
+<h2><a name="manifestclasspath">Manifestclasspath</a></h2>
+
+<h3>Description</h3>
+<p>Converts a <a href="../using.html#path">Path</a> into a property
+whose value is appropriate for a <a href="manifest.html">Manifest</a>'s
+<code>Class-Path</code> attribute.</p>
+
+<p>This task is often used to work around command line limitations on Windows
+when using very long class paths when launching an application. The long class
+path normally specified on the command line is replaced by a single (possibly
+empty) jar file which an in-manifest Class-Path attribute whose value lists
+all the jar and zip files the class path should contain. The files referenced
+from this attribute must be found relatively to the jar file itself, usually
+in the same directory. The Java VM automically uses all file entries listed
+in the Class-Path attributes of a jar to locate/load classes. Note though that
+it silently ignores entries for which it cannot find any corresponding file.</p>
+
+<p>Note that the property value created may be longer than a manifest's maximum
+72 characters per line, but will be properly wrapped as per the Jar
+specification by the <code>&lt;manifest&gt;</code> element, where the
+defined property is re-referenced.</p>
+
+<p>For this task to work properly the relative path from the file
+ given in the <code>jarfile</code> attribute to the elements of the
+ nested <code>classpath</code> must be the same as you expect them to
+ be when deploying the jar.</p>
+
+<p><em>since Apache Ant 1.7</em></p>
+
+<h3>Parameters</h3>
+<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
+ <tr>
+ <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
+ <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
+ <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td valign="top">property</td>
+ <td valign="top">the name of the property to set. This property must
+ not already be set.</td>
+ <td valign="top" align="center">Yes</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td valign="top">jarfile</td>
+ <td valign="top">
+ the filename for the Jar which will contain the manifest that will
+ use the property this task will set. This file need not exist yet,
+ but its parent directory must exist.
+ </td>
+ <td valign="top" align="center">Yes</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td valign="top">maxParentLevels</td>
+ <td valign="top">
+ The maximum number of parent directories one is allowed to traverse
+ to navigate from the jar file to the path entry. Put differently, the
+ maximum number of .. which is allowed in the relative path from the
+ jar file to a given class path entry. Specify 0 to enforce a path
+ entry to be in the same directory (or one of its sub-directories)
+ as the jar file itself. Defaults to 2 levels.</td>
+ <td valign="top" align="center">No</td>
+ </tr>
+</table>
+
+<h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3>
+<h4>classpath</h4>
+<p>A <a href="../using.html#path">Path-like</a> element, which can be
+defined in-place, or refer to a path defined elsewhere using the
+<code>&lt;classpath refid="<em>pathid</em>" /&gt;</code> syntax.
+This classpath must not be empty, and is required.</p>
+
+<h3>Examples</h3>
+<div id="example1">
+ <blockquote><pre>
+ &lt;manifestclasspath property="jar.classpath"
+ jarfile="build/acme.jar"&gt;
+ &lt;classpath refid="classpath" /&gt;
+ &lt;/manifestclasspath&gt;
+ </pre></blockquote>
+ <p>Assuming a path of id "classpath" was already defined, convert this
+ path relatively to the build/ directory that will contain acme.jar, which
+ can later be created with <code>&lt;jar&gt;</code> with a nested
+ <code>&lt;manifest&gt;</code> element that lists an
+ <code>&lt;attribute name="Class-Path" value="${jar.classpath}" /&gt;</code>.
+ </p>
+</div>
