Inherits:
ZipTask show all
Defined in:
lib/buildr/java/packaging.rb

Overview

Extends the ZipTask to create a JAR file.

This task supports two additional attributes: manifest and meta-inf.

The manifest attribute specifies how to create the MANIFEST.MF file.

  • A hash of manifest properties (name/value pairs).

  • An array of hashes, one for each section of the manifest.

  • A string providing the name of an existing manifest file.

  • A file task can be used the same way.

  • Proc or method called to return the contents of the manifest file.

  • False to not generate a manifest file.

The meta-inf attribute lists one or more files that should be copied into the META-INF directory.

For example:

package(:jar).with(:manifest=>'src/MANIFEST.MF')
package(:jar).meta_inf << file('README')
