How to modify the Manifest file in the JAR file

Hi guys,

i am having a JAR which contains one Manifest file and 10 class files.

actually i want to do some changes on the manifest file, but by using the ,

"jar -cmf new_manifest_filejar_fileNameall_class_files " option i am able to modify the manifest file by repacking the .class also.

i want to modify the manifest file without disturbing the existing class files in the JAR file.

Thanx in advance.............! ! ! !

bye,

subbu

A jar is just a zip file, and a manifest is just a text file

yeah, that is correct.my doubt is,Is it possible to modify the Manifest file which is inside the jar file, by without disturbing the Class files.--Subbu
