Manifestclasspath

- -

Description

Converts a Path into a property -whose value is appropriate for a Manifest's -Class-Path attribute.

- -

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.

- -

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 <manifest> element, where the -defined property is re-referenced.

- -

For this task to work properly the relative path from the file - given in the jarfile attribute to the elements of the - nested classpath must be the same as you expect them to - be when deploying the jar.

- -

since Apache Ant 1.7

Parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
property	the name of the property to set. This property must - not already be set.	Yes
jarfile	- 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. -	Yes
maxParentLevels	- 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.	No

Parameters specified as nested elements

classpath

A Path-like element, which can be -defined in-place, or refer to a path defined elsewhere using the -<classpath refid="pathid" /> syntax. -This classpath must not be empty, and is required.

- -

Examples

-    <manifestclasspath property="jar.classpath"
-                       jarfile="build/acme.jar">
-      <classpath refid="classpath" />
-    </manifestclasspath>
-

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 <jar> with a nested - <manifest> element that lists an - <attribute name="Class-Path" value="${jar.classpath}" />. -
