Manifest can break a CP longer than 72 char on several lines correctly, using the proper rules, and has been doing it correctly for years. Very few bugs reported against it turned out to be real bugs in fact. So I strongly suggest you take a second look, assuming it does the correct thing. Note though that line breaks is only the beginning. The Class-Path: attribute also needs to use the proper file and path separators, be absolute or relative to the jar, and for this you should depend on ManifestClasspath, another Ant class that can take a Path and again format it correctly. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@ant.apache.org
