Robert Scholte commented on MJAR-193:
-------------------------------------

I think the proper way is to have some kind of extensionpoint in the 
maven-jar-plugin where you can add MANIFEST-logic. One of the fundamental rules 
is that plugins should not be aware of each other and I think this can be 
solved within the maven-jar-plugin.

> Allow other mojos to contribute to the manifest

> It would be great to have a programmatic way to add entries to the manifest 
> from other mojos. The most important client of such a way would be the maven 
> bundle plugin (from the Apache Felix project) that calculates additional 
> headers for OSGi bundles. Right now, that bundle does not only do the 
> calculation but generates the jar file as well.
> While a workaround would be to let the bundle plugin generate the full 
> manifest and configure the jar plugin to use it, this is not very elegant. 
> Passing down a map of manifest entries from one mojo to the jar plugin would 
> solve this in a much better way.
> And I could imagine that other mojos/plugins might benefit for this as well.
> This would be a simple but very convenient enhancement to the plugin
