Do you mean that you need to run "java -jar filename.jar" to build/install the software? If so, you could write something like:

build {
    system -C ${worksrcpath} "java -jar filename.jar"
}

Or did you mean that the user will run "java -jar filename.jar" to run the software after it is installed? An example of this kind of port is antlr3 but there are several others.
