extracting manifest and( txf, cvfm ) and replace it



I have a jar file generated in netbeans that has my 1.5 million+ lines of code compiled perfectly and has
been running in the Netbeans enviornment for years.

I need to know if I can use my build.xml that I am learning to write in eclipse to manipulate that dist.jar and extract any manifest in that jar and
incorporate my new manifest with new keys/values that will describe the dependencies etc. so it will be an executable jar file that
runs outside of netbeans.

thanks

Jar files are just zip files. You can use most any archive program (winzip, 7zip, etc) to explore the jar file and extract the manifest file.

Not really sure what this question has to do with Eclipse.
