I have a jar, including the manifest pointing a bunch of jars. I was trying to use javac in ANT to compile the source files. The problem is how to let ANT know this jar is just a manifest, so that it can find the correct the jars by following this manifest. JAVAC doesn't provide an option "manifest" as JAR does. Any suggestion?

sorry can you clarify a bit more? You say: The problem is how to let ANT know this jar is just a manifest, so that it can find the correct the jars by following this manifest. – M.Octavio Mar 20 '13 at 05:15

I'm not sure if what you want is to use a manifest in Ant, if that's the case look into this http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/manifest.html – M.Octavio Mar 20 '13 at 05:16

Thanks M.Octavio. For example, I want to use
And the source files (say, 1, 2, 3) depend on some jars (say, A, B, C). I have made a jar (say D), which has a manifest pointing to A, B, C. If I specify classpass in javac to be D, ANT actually can't find the necessary packages in A B and C for 1, 2 and 3. How can I do so that ANT can actually go to A B and C to look for necessary packages – Gooooooogel Mar 20 '13 at 06:17 -
