How to export java application jar and set Class-Path? [message #172545]

Hi,
i have project and wish to export it as single jar file.
Project console based and doesn't use any eclipse plugins.
Project uses third party libraries packaged as jars.
I wish to store these libraries inside my jar and set
Class-Path in manifest accordingly.
I jave .jardesc for project, and since i can't find where
in 'JAR Export' wizard i can set class path, and jar export
wizard didn't use project's classpath during export i decided
to 'Use existing manifest from workspace' and create one
manually. Unfortunately wizard ignores my selection and always
generates it's own manifest and stores it into jar file. Is it
possible to either:
make that wizard use project's classpath (from 'Java Build Path')
or make it use my manifest file?

If you specify to use the an existing manifest then it should work,
otherwise it is a bug which you should report against JDT UI.
