Hi!

This is my first posting here, and am relatively new to Eclipse, even
though I have tested many releases of it in the last 2 years. Now I'm
starting to use it more consistently.

I have a question regarding the creation of JAR files. Is it possible to
have JAR libraries used in a project merged into the generated JAR of my
product? In the JAR Packager, I see that I can include the JAR libraries,
but they're jarred as is. What I'm looking for instead is a way to have
the libraries unjarred and then jarred into my final JAR. Is that
possible?

Steve

The thing you are looking for is called "ANT", my friend!
It is kinda build-in to Eclipse. With that little thing your write your
own jar-and-unjar task, VEERY easily in an XML-language.

You have <jar> and <unjar> tasks in there. Eclipse also offers a very
cool editor for making the ant "build.xml" files.

Open the "Ant" view in your eclipse and this http://ant.apache.org/!
