I'm working on a webapp which have webservices.
I'm to get build version, specification title etc which are then in the manifest file to respond to the resful service
For a web request I can do below. How can I access the manifest resource from a webservice request
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getResourceAsStream("/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF")
By reading the java doc, it looks like that the package information only exists in the JAR file. which was generated by
jar cfm MyJar.jar Manifest.txt yourPackage/*.class
and the Manifest.txt would be:
Name: java/util/
Specification-Title: Java Utility Classes
Specification-Version: 1.2
Specification-Vendor: Example Tech, Inc.
Implementation-Title: java.util
Implementation-Version: build57
Implementation-Vendor: Example Tech, Inc.
