Editing the MANIFEST.MF File Directly

You can directly edit the extension’s MANIFEST.MF file using the MANIFEST.MF tab. Isight uses this file to locate the associated metamodel.xml file within the extension’s .jar file when the extension is executed in Isight.

For more information on these files, see About Isight Extensions.

  1. Click the MANIFEST.MF tab on the right side of the Isight Developer Perspective.
  2. Add any valid manifest name-value combinations such as may be dictated by your company standards (for example, company name, author, copyright, etc.).

    Note: Isight uses the “Meta-Model” value to indicate that a metamodel.xml file exists in the jar, and Isight uses the “Name” value to determine its location.

  3. Click to save your changes to the extension.
