Hi folks,
I'm trying to write an ant task which will add a set of source files to a possibly pre-existing zip file, using the update=true attribute to make sure that they are added if the zip file exists, and added to a new zip file otherwise.
In my first test, I'm running with the zip file already there, but not containing these files that I want to add. Already, I can't get ant to do what I want; it's failing an "uptodate" check. Apparently because the stuff I want to add has an earlier timestamp than the zip file itself, ant refuses to add the files.
Any idea how I can force ant to ignore uptodate on this task?
Thanks,
Mike Dahmus
