NAME

       Debian::Javahelper::ManifestSection - Javahelper representation of a section in a Jar Manifest

SYNOPSIS

	use Debian::Javahelper::Manifest;

	my $main_sec = $manifest->get_section(MAIN_SECTION, 1);
	# set the Main-Class attribute
	$main_sec->set_value('Main-Class', 'org.site.app.AppStarter');
	# read the classpath entry - may return undef if the attribute does not exist.
	my $cp = $main_sec->get_value('Class-Path');
	# same as above except $cp will be '' if the attribute does not exist.
	$cp = $main_sec->get_value('Class-Path',  1);
	# returns a list of [$name, $value] pairs - note $name will be in the original
	# case.
	my @att = $main_sec->get_values();

DESCRIPTION

       This module is used to represent a Section in a Java Manifest.

   Constants
       MAIN_SECTION
	   A constant denoting the main section of the manifest.

	   Exported by default.

   Methods
       Debian::Javahelper::ManifestSection->new($name)
	   Creates a new section - if $name is MAIN_SECTION, then it will set "Manifest-Version" otherwise it will set "Name" to $name.

	   Generally you should not need to use this directly! The Debian::Javahelper::Manifest will create sections as they are needed. There is
	   no support for creating a section and then adding it to a manifest after wards.

       $section->set_value($attr, $value)
	   Sets the value of $attr to $value. If $attr did not exist in this section then it will be created. $value may not contain newlines.

	   Note: $attr exists if an attribute matches $attr ignoring the case of the two. When $attr is created, the original case will be stored
	   for later (for writing). Later updates to $attr will not affect the original case.

       $section->get_value($attr[, $empty])
	   Returns the value of $attr, long values are merged into a single line. $attr is looked up case-insensitively.

	   Returns undef if $attr is not present in the section, unless $empty is a truth-value. In this case it will return ''.

       $section->get_values()
	   Returns all the values in the section in a list of [$attr, $value] pairs. "Manifest-Version" and "Name" will appear first in this list
	   if they appear in this section, the remaining attributes appears in any order and this order may change.

	   Modifying the list or the pairs will not affect the attributes in the section.

	   Note: The $attr part will be the original case of the attribute.

NAME

       jh_manifest - Adds or/and modifies manifests for jars

SYNOPSIS

       jh_manifest  [debhelperoptions]	[options]  jar1 ... jarN

       jh_manifest  [debhelperoptions]	[options]

DESCRIPTION

       Javahelper tool to add or update manifests in a jar file. It can be used in two modes. If passed jar files, it will only process these jar
       files. Otherwise it will update all jar files in the packages it acts on.

       When processing a package, the debhelper(7) exclude option will make jh_manifest ignore matching jar files.

FILES

       debian/package.manifest (or debian/manifest)
	   This file consist of a list of jar files and values to add to their manifests. Values in this file will take precedence over values in
	   the original manifest (and command line arguments over values in this file).

	   It is allowed to list a link in this file instead of an actual jar file, provided that the link can be resolved when jh_manifest
	   processes it.

	   If a jar file is listed here cannot be found, jh_manifest will print a warning, unless the jar file has been excluded.

	   As of javahelper >= 0.32, you may add comments in this file. If the line starts with a "#" it is completely ignored.

	   This file is ignored if jh_manifest is passed jar files via command line.

OPTIONS

       -c classpath, --classpath=classpath
	   Sets the Class-Path attribute of all processed jar files to classpath.

	   If not passed, then the CLASSPATH environment variable will be used in the given jar file do not have a Class-Path attribute.

       -m class, --main=class
	   Sets the Main-Class attribute to class in all processed jar files.

       -o options, --javaopts=options
	   Sets the Debian-Java-Parameters to options in all processed jar files. This attribute is used by jarwrapper to start java with extra
	   options (e.g. to make more memory available).

       -j /path/to/java/home, --java-home=/path/to/java/home
	   Sets the Debian-Java-Home attribute to /path/to/java/home in all processed jars. This attribute is used by jarwrapper to determine
	   which JVM to use.

EXAMPLES

       An example debian/manifest file:

	# use the symlink so we do not have to update with the next upstream release.
	usr/share/java/my.jar:
	 Class-Path: dep1.jar dep2.jar
	 Main-Class: some.awesome.Class
	usr/share/java/dep2.jar:
	 Class-Path: dep1.jar
