Hi,
I have one lib folder in this folder it contains java files are there.i need to create the jar file for this java classes.this folder
contains one java file.I dont want to make that class as a part of jar file.

<target name="mainjar" depends="compile">
<jar destfile="ProjectSonnetTest\src\mainProject.jar"
basedir="ProjectSonnetTest\src\src\lib" excludes="ProjectSonnetTest\src\lib\TestExecute.java">
</jar>
</target>
here I am dont want to make TestExecute.java as a part fo jar file.
I am using this code.but it is creating the jar file for all java classes which is inside the src folder.

Thanks

Try using this instead:

excludes="**/*.java"

or even this:

excludes="**/TestExecute.java"


Also, never use back-slashes (\) in ant scripts - they are too often interpreted as as escape characters.
