What are people's thoughts on allowing this? In the eclipse tooling, I'd like to support projects that have external jar entries to be deployed in-place to the shared library. I implemented an alternative solution, which I quickly found to fail on windows, and that was to provide a dummy jar with absolute classpath entries that point back to these external jars. This worked great on mac/linux, but apparently its not part of the jar manifest spec and does not work on windows. Any suggestions? -sachin --Apple-Mail-4--85118777 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Currently the sharedlib support = does not allow individual absolute jar entries to be specified.=A0 What = are people's thoughts on allowing this?
