setting classpath for jar file inside jar file

Hi All,
I have a jar file named A.jar. This A.jar contains a java class Trial.class, Manifest.mf and B.jar. Trial.class uses the B.jar file. How should i set the path of B.jar file in Manifest.mf.

As expected, if i keep B.jar file in the same directory as A.jar and give "CLASS-PATH: B.jar" in Manifest.mf, then it works. But i want to include this B.jar file in A.jar file.

Please help me solve this problem.

Keep the JARs separate and add them separately to the classpath.
