Description

The Class-Path elements within the 1.7 distributions are incorrect according to the manifest specification located here:

http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jar/jar.html#JAR%20Manifest

Classpath entries are delimited by a backslash. If someone tries to use batik as a library module within netbeans he ends up with an "Illegal character in path at index 0: \" error message.

P.S: I'm sorry for the use of this component but I didn't found any better component.
