public class MungeJar
extends org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Jar

Ant task to produces a jar file from a CLASSPATH.

This task produces a munged jar file of elements in a classpath. It is suitable for building a jar for includion in a war or ear file where the classpath ordering is significant. Simply placing individual elements in the WEB-INF/lib directory (for example) does not guarantee that one jar will be loaded before any other. The jar resulting from this operation will ensure that the earliest occurence of a class in your path is included.

This task extends Jar, so all of its options are relevant.

Parameters

The Task has the following attributes:
Attribute Description Required
jar The jar file to produce. Yes
tmpdir A temporary directory to use for building the munged jar file. Yes
classpath The classpath to munge. No
cleanup (boolean) Cleanup the tmpdir after running - if true, causes the task to re-run completely each time, since the intermediate files will be removed. No

The classpath can also be specified by nested classpath or classpathref elements.

Example

 <mungejar jar="${basedir}/jar/com.i3sp.sso.munge.jar"
           tmpdir="${basedir}/gensrc"
           classpath="${CLASSPATH}" />
