I think the gen-class generated class looks up and calls -main from it's main, which is the regular java main. The manifest file in a jar is not really related to that. All the manifest does is tell which class' main method to use if someone tries to run the jar with the -jar command line option (which I don't recommend because it nukes your classpath, doing a -cp and specifying your main class is often better). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
