How to manipulate Manifest file with maven

Question

I have an EAR file built with maven. The EAR contains several jars and I need to add a line in the manifest file for just one of these jars. I know of the maven-jar-plugin optio

Answer 1

If you take a deeper look into maven-ear-plugin configuration you will find the archive configuration part which is exactly intended for such purposes.

This can be added to the configuration of the maven-ear-plugin:

  
  
  
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
  
  
    value
  
  
  
    
      
      
        value
      
    
  
  

Which gives you any opportunity you need.
