Document the dirname/windows "feature". If this cannot be resolved, it would be good to document the behavior. Can the following be considered for the Ant user manual?
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/jar.html Note that if the basedir value has space character(s) appended to it, then some operating systems, e.g. Windows, will report an error on the jar or other tasks that uses the dirname. If the basedir without the space exists, then if the basedir value has appended space(s), the error message "IO error scanning directory" can be reported. Also, it is possible that ant available task would that the directory name with the space exists. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
