http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29731 jar task 'filesetmanifest="mergewithoutmain"' only working on manifest files Summary: jar task 'filesetmanifest="mergewithoutmain"' only working on manifest files Product: Ant Version: 1.6.1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Consider the following task: <jar destfile="${ant.project.name}.jar" filesetmanifest="mergewithoutmain"> <manifest> <attribute name="Implementation-Title" value="AntTest" /> <attribute name="Implementation-Vendor" value="Day Software AG" /> <attribute name="Implementation-Version" value="1.0 (build ${DSTAMP})" /> </manifest> <zipgroupfileset dir="."> <include name="jar1.jar"/> <include name="jar2.jar"/> </zipgroupfileset> </jar> The expected behaviour according to documentation is that the manifests contained in the jar1.jar and jar2.jar files are merged into the manifest of the target jar file except for the main section. Given the manifest from jar1.jar ------------------------------------------------------------- Manifest-Jar1: This is the MAIN part of jar1's Manifest Name: jar1 SomeProperty: Property of Jar1 ------------------------------------------------------------- And the manifest from jar2.jar ------------------------------------------------------------- Manifest-Jar2: This is the MAIN part of jar2's Manifest Name: jar2 SomeProperty: Property of Jar2 ------------------------------------------------------------- The resulting manifest in the target jar file is expected to be ------------------------------------------------------------- Manifest-Version: 1.0 Implementation-Title: AntTest Implementation-Vendor: Day Management AG Implementation-Version: 1.0 (build ${DSTAMP}) Name: jar1 SomeProperty: Property of Jar1 Name: jar2 SomeProperty: Property of Jar2 ------------------------------------------------------------- While the actual manifest in the target jar file is ------------------------------------------------------------- Manifest-Version: 1.0 Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.6.1 Created-By: 1.4.2_04 (Sun Microsystems Inc.) Manifest-Jar1: This is the MAIN part of jar1's Manifest Manifest-Jar2: This is the MAIN part of jar2's Manifest Implementation-Title: AntTest Implementation-Vendor: Day Management AG Implementation-Version: 1.0 (build ${DSTAMP}) Name: jar1 SomeProperty: Property of Jar1 Name: jar2 SomeProperty: Property of Jar2 ------------------------------------------------------------- On the other hand, if the target jar file manifest is specified to come from a manifest file instead of a contained <manifest> element, merging works as expected ignoring the Main sections of the jar1.jar and jar2.jar files. Looking at the source of the manifest creation in the Jar task class (method createManifest()) reveals, that the configured manifest's main section is merged into the original and zipfileset manifest main sections and only the defined manifest file's main section may overlay the merged Main sections. I assume this is a problem as the configured manifest Main section should be treated the same as the Main section from a manifest file. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
