BlackBerry: create COD from JAR source file in Ant script

Question

How do I use Ant (bb-ant-tools) to compile a JAR file into a COD? i.e. with no other source files

---

Reason

Ultimately, I need a script

From your console output, the command that is failing:

jar -cfmv C:\development\ant\new_test\MyApp\build\MyApp.jar C:\Users\Richard\AppData\Local\Temp\rapc_598c0c5a.dir\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF MyApp.cod MyApp-1.cod MyApp-2.cod MyApp.csl MyApp.cso -C C:\Users\Richard\AppData\Local\Temp\rapc_598c2ad7.dir .

Looking up those options in the jar tool documentation:

-C dir
Temporarily changes directories (cd dir) during execution of the jar command while processing the following inputfiles argument. Its operation is intended to be similar to the -C option of the UNIX tar utility.

Based on that, I think rapc is putting the unpacked cod file in C:\Users\Richard\AppData\Local\Temp\rapc_598c2ad7.dir and that is causing conflicts with the cod files specified on the command line. Is that directory still around? Look inside to see what's there.
