http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17871 war task's webxml attrib no longer is able to use value with a starting backslash for the path in Windows ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-12 22:28 ------- I can confirm the existence of this bug. I have done a test of this bug under Win2000 and JDK 1.4.1_01-b01 I think I also have found the origin of this bug : 1)War.java#zipFile(File file, ZipOutputStream zOut, String vPath, int mode) contains a line saying ... !deploymentDescriptor.equals(file) ... in test3 deploymentDescriptor = \Xxx\Yyy\Zzz.xml file = D:\Xxx\Yyy\Zzz.xml therefore War.java#zipFile refuses to include \Xxx\Yyy\Zzz.xml into the war file 2) AbstractFileSet.java does this public void setFile(File file) { ... setDir(fileUtils.getParentFile(file)); ... } getParentFile returns D:\Xxx\Yyy\ always, independently of whether file contains the drive specification or not
