Mark B updated DERBY-4183:
--------------------------

    Attachment: testjars.diff

Hi,

well derby does seem a nice project, so I'm looking at the automatic 
compilation of test jars;

I've written a patch that re-compiles for instance the jar found at 
java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/testData/v1/j1v1.jar

my work so far raises the relevant questions
- without sight of the original commands it's partly guesswork trying to 
re-compile the jars
- specifically, in the case of j1v1.jar there are manifest entries for signing; 
the only reference in the project to ant's signjar command is in the demo 
directory, java/demo/localcal/build.xml that calls for local signature details;

so it's unclear to me whether I should be signjar-ing the jars, whose key 
should sign it / whether I simply [as the patch currently does] add the 
original signature manifest entries to the jar?

Best regards

Mark
