| Headless Build, Signed JARs and Timestamps [message #628727] |

Hi all,
I have a code signing certificate with timestamp support which I require to
sign JARs for my application. I do this because my end-user will not likely
have internet access and is also unlikely to update their software very
frequently. As a result, timetamped signed code is very useful as it will
prevent warnings even after my certificate expires provided that the code
was signed before the expiry.
I notice that the properties file used for the headless build has properties
for the alias, keystore, storepass, and keypass but doesn't seem to provide
a mechanism to specify the timestamp authority URL (the -tsa option in the
jarsigner). Is there any mechanism to use timestamped signatures?

I'll go ahead and reply to myself here. It looks like the best way to do
this is to use the ant "signjar" task.
You would call it from the postAssemble target of your customTargets.xml
file.
I also toyed with the customAssembly.xml figuring the "postJar" task would
be a good spot to do it but found that this task is never getting called.
