I built a jar file using the following build.xml
below:
<project name="sampleproject">
<!--Source Directory-->
<property name="src.dir" value="src" />
<property name="deploy.name" value="samplejar.jar" />
<property name="lib.dir" value="./lib" />
<property name="deploy.dir" value="target" />
<property name="compile.dir" value="target/classes" />
<!--Define directory name for third party libraries-->
<property name="jar-all" location="${lib.dir}" />
<!--Fileset is a group of files, here **/* matches all jar files across all directory levels-->
<fileset id="jars" dir="${jar-all}">
</fileset>
<!--Setting the classpath-->
<path id="classpath">
<fileset refid="jars" />
<pathelement location="." />
<pathelement location="${src.dir}" />
<pathelement location="${compile.dir}" />
</path>
<path id="cp">
<fileset refid="jars" />
</path>
<pathconvert property="classpath.path" refid="cp" pathsep=" " dirsep="/">
<map from="${jar-all}" to="lib" />
</pathconvert>
<echo>${classpath}</echo>
<!--Clean-->
<target name="clean">
<delete dir="${deploy.dir}" />
</target>
<!--Jar-->
<target name="jar" depends="compile">
<jar destfile="${deploy.dir}/${deploy.name}.jar" basedir="${compile.dir}">
<manifest>
<attribute name="Main-Class" value="main.java.Main" />
<attribute name="Class-Path" value="${classpath.path}" />
</manifest>
<include name="${src.dir}/META-INF/persistence.xml" />
<restrict>
<not>
<or>
<name name="**/*.RSA" />
<name name="**/*.SF" />
<name name="**/*.DSA" />
</or>
</not>
<archives>
<zips>
<fileset dir="lib" includes="**/*.jar" />
</zips>
</archives>
</restrict>
</jar>
</target>
<!--Compile-->
<target name="compile">
<mkdir dir="${compile.dir}" />
<javac includeantruntime="false" srcdir="${src.dir}" destdir="${compile.dir}">
<classpath refid="classpath" />
</javac>
</target>
</project>
My folder structure is like this:
.
./.settings

Whenever I run the jar produced it gives me, Error: Could not find or load main class main.java.Main
.
Also, I want to include lib
folder & it's subfolders as well since it contains the libraries required to run the jar.
Before it gave me, No Persistence provider for EntityManager named
but I solved that by using <include name="${src.dir}/META-INF/persistence.xml" />
. Any where I am might wrong?
Your problem is the <include> element in the jar task. I executed your script and the Main.class file is not added to the jar. Replace the
<include
by
<fileset dir="${src.dir}" includes="META-INF/persistence.xml" />
This way it will still add all files located in your ${compile.dir}.
Are you new to java ? Normally you put your source files in src/main/java and resources in src/main/resources. These folders are the root folder of your classpath meaning: If your project classes would be in package org.myproject, than you would put the Main.java file in src/main/java/org/myproject/Main.java In your build script you than set the property "src.dir" to "src/main/java".
With all resources (=files which do not need to be compiled but must be available in the jar) in src/main/resources the fileset element in the jar task could just be:
<fileset dir="scr/main/resources"/>
This way all resource files you plan to add to your project will automatically added to your jar.
Why do I tell you this ? If one day you would think of using maven instead of ant, maven expects the sources to be in src/main/java and resources in src/main/resources. ( https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html )
Regarding you other dependant jars: Now you include all jars twice: you add the content of them using the <archives> element within the jar and you define them in the Class-Path attribute of the manifest.mf file.
If you really like to build a single jar containing all dependant files, you don't need to specify the manifest attribute Class-Path.
If you want your jar file containing only your files and deliver the dependant jars separately: remove the <archives> element within the jar task.
