<h2><a name="signjar">SignJar</a></h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Signing a jar allows users to authenticate the publisher.</p>
<p>Signs JAR files with the <a target="_blank" href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/jarsigner.html"><tt>jarsigner</tt> command line tool</a>.
It will take a named file in the <tt>jar</tt> attribute, and an optional
<tt>destDir</tt> or <tt>signedJar</tt> attribute. Nested paths are also
supported; here only an (optional) <tt>destDir</tt> is allowed. If a destination
directory or explicit JAR file name is not provided, JARs are signed in place.
</p>
<p>
Dependency rules
</p>
<ul>
<li>Nonexistent destination JARs are created/signed</li>
<li>Out of date destination JARs are created/signed</li>
<li>If a destination file and a source file are the same,
and <tt>lazy</tt> is true, the JAR is only signed if it does not
contain a signature by this alias.</li>
<li>If a destination file and a source file are the same,
and <tt>lazy</tt> is false, the JAR is signed.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Examples</h3>
<p>For instructions on generating a code signing certificate, see the <a target="_blank" href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/keytool.html">keytool documentation</a> and/or instructions from your certificate authority.</p>
  <blockquote><pre>
&lt;signjar jar=&quot;${dist}/lib/ant.jar&quot;
alias=&quot;apache-group&quot; storepass=&quot;secret&quot;/&gt;
</pre></blockquote>
<p>
  signs the ant.jar with alias &quot;apache-group&quot; accessing the
  keystore and private key via &quot;secret&quot; password.
</p>
  <blockquote><pre>
&lt;signjar destDir="signed"
    alias="testonly" keystore="testkeystore"
    storepass="apacheant"
    preservelastmodified="true"&gt;
  &lt;path&gt;
    &lt;fileset dir="dist" includes="**/*.jar" /&gt;
  &lt;/path&gt;
  &lt;flattenmapper /&gt;
&lt;/signjar&gt;
</pre></blockquote>
<p>
Sign all JAR files matching the dist/**/*.jar pattern, copying them to the
directory "signed" afterwards. The flatten mapper means that they will
all be copied to this directory, not to subdirectories.

</p>
  <blockquote><pre>
&lt;signjar
    alias="testonly" keystore="testkeystore"
    storepass="apacheant"
    lazy="true"
    &gt;
  &lt;path&gt;
    &lt;fileset dir="dist" includes="**/*.jar" /&gt;
  &lt;/path&gt;
&lt;/signjar&gt;
</pre></blockquote>
<p>
Sign all the JAR files in dist/**/*.jar <i>in-situ</i>. Lazy signing is used,
so the files will only be signed if they are not already signed.
</p>
  <blockquote><pre>
&lt;signjar
    alias="testonly" keystore="testkeystore"
    storepass="apacheant"
    sigalg="MD5withRSA"
    digestalg="SHA1"&gt;
  &lt;path&gt;
    &lt;fileset dir="dist" includes="**/*.jar" /&gt;
  &lt;/path&gt;
&lt;/signjar&gt;
</pre></blockquote>
<p>
Sign all the JAR files in dist/**/*.jar using the digest algorithm SHA1 and the
signature algorithm MD5withRSA. This is especially useful when you want to use
the JDK 7 jarsigner (which uses SHA256 and SHA256withRSA as default) to create
signed jars that will be deployed on platforms not supporting SHA256 and
SHA256withRSA.

<h3>About timestamp signing</h3>

<p>Timestamps record the date and time that a signature took place, allowing the signature to be verified as of that point in time.
With trusted timestamping, users can verify that signing occurred before a certificate's expiration or revocation. Without this timestamp, users can only verify the signature as of their current date.</p>

<p>
Timestamped JAR files were introduced in Java1.5 and supported in Ant since
Ant 1.7. Since Ant 1.9.5, Ant can use unauthenticated proxies for this signing process.
</p>

<p>Common public timestamp authorities include
  <ul>
    <li>http://timestamp.verisign.com</li>
	<li>http://tsa.starfieldtech.com</li>
	<li>https://timestamp.geotrust.com/tsa</li>
	<li>Others (see your certificate authority)</li>
  </ul></p>
