All right, I'm just going to paste my code. It's possible no one
responded because no one here is that familiar with Rawr (or at least
its internals), but I might as well ask anyway.

My script runs just fine with Jruby. It uses the Barby (bar code
generator) gem, which I unpacked into lib/ruby. I renamed the unpacked
directory to just barby. Here is the script, main.rb:

require 'rubygems'

puts 'Load path:'
  $LOAD_PATH.each { |dir| puts dir }
puts

require 'barby'

puts 'Hello, world.'
__END__


My build_configuration.rb is:

configuration do |c|
  c.project_name = 'RawrTest'
  c.output_dir = 'package'
  c.main_ruby_file = 'main'
  c.main_java_file = 'org.rubyforge.rawr.Main'

  # Compile all Ruby and Java files recursively
  # Copy all other files taking into account exclusion filter
  c.source_dirs = ['src', 'lib/ruby']
  c.source_exclude_filter = []

  # Location of the jruby-complete.jar. Override this if your jar
lives elsewhere.
  # This allows Rawr to make sure it uses a compatible jrubyc when compiling,
  # so the class files are always compatible, regardless of your system JRuby.
  #c.jruby_jar = 'lib/java/jruby-complete.jar'
  c.compile_ruby_files = true # I have also tried setting this to false
  #c.java_lib_files = []
  c.java_lib_dirs = ['lib/java']
  #c.files_to_copy = Dir['other_files/dir/**/*']

  c.target_jvm_version = 1.5
  #c.jars[:data] = { :directory => 'data/images', :location_in_jar =>
'images', :exclude => /bak/}
  #c.jvm_arguments = "-server"
  #c.java_library_path = "lib/java/native"

  # Bundler options
  # c.do_not_generate_plist = false
end
__END__

Finally, my src/manifest.rb:

Dir.glob(File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) +
'/**/*').gsub('%20', ' ')).each do |directory|
  next if directory =~ /\/barby\//
  $LOAD_PATH << directory unless directory =~ /\.\w+$/
#File.directory? is broken in current JRuby for dirs inside jars
end

# Not sure what to put in the middle of this file

require 'resolver' # I've also tried it without this

case Monkeybars::Resolver.run_location
when Monkeybars::Resolver::IN_FILE_SYSTEM

  # assorted stuff  omitted

when Monkeybars::Resolver::IN_JAR_FILE
  add_to_load_path "barby/lib"
end
__END__

I believe all the other files in the directory are the ones created by
'rawr install'. When I run the program, my load path is listed, and
then there is an exception:

Exception in thread "main"
file:/Users/eric/Sources/RawrTest/package/jar/lib/java/jruby-complete.jar!/META-INF/jruby.home/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in

Thanks in advance.
