<h2><a name="signjar">SignJar</a></h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Signs JAR files with the <tt>jarsigner</tt> command line tool. 
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Out of date destination JARs are created/signed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>
  <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>
<h3>About timestamp signing</h3>

<p>
Timestamped JAR files are a new feature in Java1.5; a feature supported in Ant since
Ant 1.7. Ant does not yet support proxy setup for this singing process, and
the whole TSA feature is not tested yet. Furthermore, the 
<a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/security/time-of-signing-beta1.html">
official TSA documentation</a>
warns that the API is subject to change. If a future version of Java changes the
API, Ant will break. It may be possible to hide changes if and when they occur,
but this can not be guaranteed.
