Posted October 7, 20159 yr I feel bad for asking another question so soon, but I need help here (also gradle is confusing for me). Anyways, I think I'm almost ready to start distributing my library, but I want to take care of something first. While everything does run, it still requires the user to have a copy of Clojure.jar (the Clojure compiler) in the mods folder, on top of forge-clj (the library/wrapper I made) and the mod they want to run. So what I'm asking is: is there a way to include a jar file (or its contents) inside the mod jar? Clojure is freely redistributable, so the only problem here is actually including it. Currently working on a mod to provide support for the Clojure programming language in Minecraft, check it out here.
October 7, 20159 yr you want a hacky way? decompile it , add it to your workspace and compile ur mod with the library inside. i bet there are better ways
October 7, 20159 yr Author Yeah, that probably won't work, since Clojure itself is pretty much written in raw bytecode rather than java from what I understand (so decompiling it won't work well), but thanks anyways.

October 7, 20159 yr Another even hackier method: -Open mod jar. -Open Clojure.jar -Copy contents of second in first. -Close jars. You have to use professional software that can open and maniopulate jars! Like Total Commander fo example... Otherwise, this is probably the hackiest way and it may not work: -Rename mod .jar to .zip -Rename clojure.jar to .zip -Copy contentes of clojure.zip in to mod.zip -Rename mod.zip back to mod.jar. This may work, this may not... Just try... Check out my mods: BTAM Armor sets Avoid Exploding Creepers Tools compressor Anti Id Conflict Key bindings overhaul Colourfull blocks Invisi Zones
October 7, 20159 yr Author I was honestly hoping that there would be a way to merge the jars automatically using forge gradle.... Thanks anyways I guess. EDIT: I think I found an answer on stack overflow here, I'll give it a shot. Currently working on a mod to provide support for the Clojure programming language in Minecraft, check it out here.
October 7, 20159 yr Author Oh, thank you! This is really useful! (I should be able to actually release a usable version of this thing soon, I'll make a post in the mods section when I do.)

October 8, 20159 yr readthedocs.org/ Ha, love the url. Don't think I've noticed that before. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
