Description Sebastian Mattar CLA 2002-04-04 01:52:40 EST 
I noticed the JAR-Packager ignores the last line of a manifest-file.
Workaround: add a newline at the end.

Using build 20020321

This happens when using an existing manifest
Comment 2 Dani Megert CLA 2002-04-04 05:07:52 EST 
Did you use a custom manifest file or did you use a manifest file generated from
JAR Packager?

Please not that if you use (or edit) a custom manifest file and you or your
editor do not end the (last) line with new line or CR then you violate the
Manifest spec and the result is JDK's (java.util.jar.Manifest) punishment for
not doing so ;-)

Please add additional info if this happened with a file generated (and then
used) by the JAR Packager or mark the bug report as INVALID.

Well yes, I used a custom manifest file :)
