JH_LINKJARS(1)                    Javahelper                    JH_LINKJARS(1)

NAME
       jh_linkjars - populate folders with symlinks to jar files

SYNOPSIS
       jh_linkjars [debhelperĀ options]

       jh_linkjars [debhelperĀ options] directory

DESCRIPTION
       If upstream ship convenience copies of third-party jar files which have
       been removed (see jh_repack(1)), but the build system refers to that
       directory, jh_linkjars can be used to populate the directory with
       symlinks to the packaged jars in /usr/share/java.

       It is called either with a directory on the command line or by
       specifying one target directory per line in the file debian/linkjars.

       jh_linkjars will scan all of the (installed) build-dependencies and
       create a symlink to every jar which is installed by those packages in
       the target directory.

       jh_linkjars can be called with -u to remove all the symlinks in the
       clean target.  This is done automatically by jh_clean(1).

FILES
       debian/linkjars
           List of directories to populate; one directory per line.

OPTIONS
       -t, --transitive
           Transitively link jar files (i.e. also include indirect
           dependencies in the target directory).

       -u, --unlink
           Remove all files/links in the target directories that jh_linkjars
           created (or would have created).

       Beyond the above, jh_linkjars also accepts the shared debhelper options
       documented in debhelper(7).

SEE ALSO
       debhelper(7)

       This program is a part of javahelper and uses debhelper as backend.
       There are also tutorials in /usr/share/doc/javahelper.
