How to attach MANIFEST.MF file in jar in/using eclipse?
Every jar file you create using editor it explicitly attach MANIFEST.MF file in it. That contains basic information of that jar file. I was also generating jar file using editor regardless its MANIFEST.MF file. After major security changes in Java 1.7.0_45 its mandatory to specify some attribute in MANIFEST.MF in Applet jar. But its good practice to add this MANIFEST.MF file with proper information in it, whether its applet or simple jar file.
Step 1: Open up simple notepad or other text editor. Add your required attribute in it and save as "MANIFEST.MF" . Here is all attribute information of MANIFEST.MF file. This is my sample MANIFEST.MF file.
Step 2: Copy MANIFEST.MF file in your project's folder.
