Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-2288: ------------------------------------------ I cannot find it in the JAR spec, but it is an agreed upon fact, that the MANIFEST.MF must be first. But the java.util.JarInputStream class expects this. So I would suggest we just assume this to be factual and just log. > Bundle jar is silently ignored by the installer if MANIFEST.MF is not the > first file in the archive > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SLING-2288 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2288 > Project: Sling > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Installer > Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz > Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler > Priority: Minor > > A jar file where the MANIFEST.MF is not the first file in the jar is silently > ignored by the installer. > We should at least output a warning, and maybe try harder to find the > manifest, in the Util.getManifest(...) method. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
