To Create a JAR File Containing Customized Skins

To create a JAR file containing customized skins:

Create a directory structure similar to the following example:
```
C:\temp\META-INF\adf\oracle\skin\images
     META-INF\skins\custom.css
     META-INF\trinidad-skins.xml
```
In this example, you can change the word custom to the name of your own customized skin.

Make sure the content of trinidad-skins.xml file is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<skins xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/skin">
   <skin>
     <id>custom.desktop</id>
     <family>custom</family>
     <extends>custom.desktop</extends>
     <render-kit-id>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.desktop</render-kit-id>
     <style-sheet-name>skins/custom.css</style-sheet-name>
   </skin>
</skins>

Create the .JAR file by issuing the following command from the c:\temp directory:
```
jar -cvf customSkin.jar META-INF/
```
Copy this JAR file to the directory /scratch/username/sharedLib.

Note:

Refer to the images in your css file this way:

../adf/oracle/skin/images/example.gif (with the two trailing dots).

This allows the search for the META-INF root to start one directory above the META-INF/skin directory in which the .css file is located.
