Ant jar task include a single class file only

i have an ant task 

<target name="create_jar" depends="compile">        
    <jar destfile="build/temp/MyClassJar.jar"  basedir="build/classes/com/company/utils">
        <manifest>
            <attribute name="Main-Class" value="com.company.utils.MyClass"/>
        </manifest>
    </jar>
</target>

the folder build/classes has multiple packages and class files but in my jar i only want to include only two files MyClass.class and MyClass$1.class which are in com/company/utils folder.

if i have base-dir as com/company/utils when i run the task the jar does not have the package folders in like com/company/utils is not created inside the jar file but if i change my base-dir to build/classes then all the files are getting included. what do to fix this.

The Jar task takes a nested fileset, so you can do this:

<jar destfile="build/temp/MyClassJar.jar">
    <fileset dir="build/classes" includes="**/MyClass*.class" />
    <manifest>
        <attribute name="Main-Class" value="com.company.utils.MyClass"/>
    </manifest>
</jar>
