Re: RTFM, literally

Trying to integrate
<http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/manifest.html> into my build
code.  the example doesn't include the "jar" tags.


my  target:
        <target name="package1" depends="manifest2">
                <jar
                        jarfile="${outputDir}/${mainClass1}.jar"
                        basedir="${outputDir}"
                        manifest="${outputDir}/MANIFEST.MF"
                 />
        </target>

intuitively, it should be:
        <target name="package1" depends="manifest2">
                <jar
                        jarfile="${outputDir}/${mainClass1}.jar"
                        basedir="${outputDir}"
                        <manifest>
                                        manifest="${outputDir}/MANIFEST.MF"
                       </manifest>
                 />
        </target>

but this gives an error:

BUILD FAILED
D:\build.xml:37: Element type "jar" must be followed by either
attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".

which doesn't follow for me, as manifest is nested within jar.  what
does the error mean, please?


thanks,

Thufir
