Hi, Thanks Keith. I tried to do this using touch, however, this did not work because the date time stamp does not go down to milliseconds...

Andreas, update="true" can be used on <jar> etc. Make sure that the "new" versions of the files you wish to include really do have later date/time stamps as that is the basis for applying the update. Of course, underneath Ant is extracting and recreating the archive as you describe.

Hi, I have an ear archive that contains an application.xml file which I need to replace. The jar, zip, and ear tasks all do not provide the functionality of replacing the file as far as I can see. The duplicate argument only takes "fail", "skip" and "add" as arguments. Does anybody know how I can do this, or do I have to extract the entire archive, replace the file and recreate the archive?
