[Solved][1.7.2] MANIFEST.MF stripped on build

[williewillus]

Hey guys!

I finished reorganizing my mod workspace similarly to how bspkrs arranges his, and updating my bugfix mini-coremod to 1.7.2

It works completely in my workspace.

However, when I do

gradle build

, the resultant jarfile has its META-INF/MANIFEST-MF replaced with a single line: "Manifest-Version: 1.0"

The line where I specify my FMLCorePlugin is missing. If I manually readd this line to the manifest in the jar, the mod works as intended, but that's not really in the spirit of gradle's automation, eh?

 

What is happening and how do I correct it?

Why did you put a non-java file in your java code?

Think about it. Where do non-java files go?

I moved manifest.mf to src/main/resources/MANIFEST.MF.

 

On build the proper manifest is included in the root directory of the jarfile, however a new META-INF is generated with a "blank" manifest inside.

 

Same thing occurs if I move it to src/main/resources/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF, except that the proper manifest does not show up at all in the jarfile (Gradle overwrites it with the blank??)

 

Neither of these allow for FML to load the mod.
