IzPack Shortcut target
I am using the following shortcutSpec.xml file for creating shortcut with IzPack
<shortcuts>
<programGroup defaultName="Name of the Program Group"
location="applications/sta
<shortcut
name="MTShortcut"
target='$JAVA_HOME/bin/jav
commandLine='com.main.MApp
workingDirectory="$INSTALL
description="A description"
initialState="maximum"
programGroup="no"
desktop="yes"
applications="no"
startMenu="yes"
startup="no">
</shortcut>
</shortcuts>
But the problem is in the target it displays double quotes
"D:\JBuilder8\jdk1.4\jre\b
If i manually remove the double quotes it works fine.
If i omit the classpath code "-classpath ..\log4j-1.2.7.jar;" then in the target it doesn't display double quotes but then the shortcut doesn't work as it needs classpath.
Please tell me how can i retain the classapath and get rid of double quotes so that the shortcut works.

thanks Webstorm
It works great. But there is another problem now. Classpath has become sort of huge something like
commandLine='-classpath ..\log4j-1.2.7.jar;.;..\my
Due to some reason the target in the shortcut truncates it. May be there is a limit to the number of characters in the target.
How can i solve this.

Try to move the classpath in the commandLine attribute:
<shortcut
name="MTShortcut"
target='$JAVA_HOME/bin/jav
commandLine='-classpath ..\log4j-1.2.7.jar; com.main.MApp'
...
