-privatepackage

The -privatepackage instruction specifies packages to include from the class path as private packages. Unlike the Private-Package header, this instruction is not included in the manifest. It is used to control which packages are bundled privately in the output JAR.

Example:

-privatepackage: com.example.internal.*

This instruction is useful for fine-grained control over bundle contents during the build process.
