The dependencies are determined by looking in the specified path and searching for Extension / "Optional Package" specifications in the manifests of the jars.</p> <p>Note that this task works with extensions as defined by the "Optional Package" specification. For more information about optional packages, see the document <em>Optional Package Versioning</em> in the documentation bundle for your Java2 Standard Edition package, in file <code>guide/extensions/versioning.html</code> or online at <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/extensions/versioning.html"> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/extensions/versioning.html</a>.</p> <p>See the Extension and ExtensionSet documentation for further details</p> <h3>Parameters</h3> <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td> <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td> <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top">destfile</td> <td valign="top">The file to generate Manifest into</td> <td valign="top" align="center">Yes.</td> </tr> </table> <h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3> <h4>extension</h4> <p><a href="../OptionalTypes/extension.html">Extension</a> the extension that this library implements.</p> <h4>depends</h4> <p><a href="../OptionalTypes/extensionset.html">ExtensionSet</a>s containing all dependencies for jar.</p> <h4>options</h4> <p><a href="../OptionalTypes/extensionset.html">ExtensionSet</a>s containing all optional dependencies for jar.
