[jboss-as7-dev] Packaging utility classes in an .ear

[Stuart Douglas]

This should work, and there are tests for this in the test suite. Are you missing a newline at the end of the Class-Path: line in the manifest by any chance?

For some really annoying reason the JDK manifest processing stuff does not work unless there is newline at the end of the file.
