OT: Signing jar files from within eclipse?

Hi,
in order to overcome the security restrictions on an applet I need to sign
it using the jarsigner tool.
Is there any chance to have eclipse do this job automatically everytime I
export the classes to a .jar file?
Google didn't have anything on this issue to my surprise.

Thanks and regards
Roland

You can write an Ant-file doing the creation and signing of the
Jar. Within Eclipse you can call that Ant-script.
