-namesection RESOURCE-SPEC ( ',' RESOURCE-SPEC ) *
Builder

Create a name section (second part of manifest) with optional property expansion and addition of custom attributes.

Matching

The key of the -namesection instruction is an ant style glob. And there are two target groups for matching:

resources - the pattern not ending with / or is an exact match for a resource path
packages - the pattern ends with / or is an exact match for a package path

Custom attributes

The goal of named sections is to provide attributes over a specific subset of resources and paths in the jar file. Attributes are specified using the same syntax used elsewhere (such as package attributes). Attributes can contain properties and macros for expansion and replacement.

Each attribute is processed by bnd and the matching value is passed using the @ property.

Resources

Resources are targeted by using a glob pattern not ending with /.

For example, the following instruction sets the content type attribute for png files:

-namesection: com/foo/*.png; Content-Type=image/png

This produces a result like the following:

Name: org/foo/icon_12x12.png
Content-Type: image/png

Name: org/foo/icon_48x48.png
Content-Type: image/png

Packages

Packages are targeted by using a glob pattern that ends with /.

For example, to produce a Java Package Version Information section use an instruction like this one:

-namesection: jakarta/annotation/*/;\
	Specification-Title=Jakarta Annotations;\
	Specification-Version=${annotation.spec.version};\
	Specification-Vendor=Eclipse Foundation;\
	Implementation-Title=jakarta.annotation;\
	Implementation-Version=${annotation.spec.version}.${annotation.revision};\
	Implementation-Vendor=Apache Software Foundation
