Summary: Add a manifest or main-class file to the created jar
Description:
Hello,
the attached patch introduces two optional options to the add_jar function:
1) CMAKE_JAVA_MANIFEST
To include name : value attribute pairs from a manifest file in the
created jar at META-INF/MANIFEST.MF you can set the manifest file with:
set(CMAKE_JAVA_MANIFEST mymanifest.mf)
add_jar(foobar foobar.java)
2) CMAKE_JAVA_EXECUTABLE
To set a class as the application entry point for stand-alone applications
bundled into an executable jar you can set its name with:
set(CMAKE_JAVA_EXECUTABLE foo/Main)
add_jar(foobar foo/Main.java)
The latter one was wasn't my priority but I included it as it was easy to
realize along the first patch. It is easier to use for people only wishing to
create an executable jar than achieving the same by creating a manifest file.
Regards,
Frank
