I interested in a similar task, which is able to compile java sources and then build a jar form the resulted classes (in addition to other optional resources). The class path filed of the manifest should be also automatically generated.... I there a solution?

Hi all, I'm trying to do something which I think should be fairly simple, but after having spent hours looking for a solution, the closest thing I have found is to write a custom task. I feel that there must be a more idiomatic way to fulfill this. What I am trying to do is, after compiling a set of java files into classes, I want to take the classpath, which is composed of absolute paths, and jar the files referred to by those paths. Not conceptually difficult: just compile, and jar the dependencies. Unfortunately, both jar and war/lib take a fileset rather than a path. I've investigated the pathtofileset task of antcontrib[0], but it seems to be unable to deal with absolute paths. I haven't found anything else that attempts to resolve this. It therefore seems like the best solution I am currently left with is to role my own custom task, based on antcontrib's pathtofileset, that can gracefully deal with absolute paths. If there's an easier, more idiomatic way to do this that I am missing, I would greatly appreciate if someone would guide me in the right direction.
