WAR task

[jorge zapata]

hi all,
my WAR task does create a war, but does not create the web-inf directory along with the /lib and all others. It just makes a .war file and throws everything in it.
how can i make it create the directory structure that i want?
this is what my task looks like. if you have any suggestions or other sites, please post them, thanks in advance.
<target name="deploy" depends="copy">
<war destfile="servlet.war" webxml="${web-inf.dir}/web.xml">
<webinf dir="${web-inf.dir}" />
<fileset dir="${jsp.dir}" />
<lib dir="${lib.dir}"/>
</war>
<copy file="servlet.war" todir="../../server/default/deploy" />
</target>

Do you have files in whatever is defined by ${web-inf.dir}? Are you sure? They should show up in WEB-INF directory in the war file. You should also get a warning because web.xml is included by that file set. Is ${web-inf.dir}, as defined, a subdirectory of ${jsp.dir}? If so you will to exclude it in the "fileset" file set.

I would try echoing the variables to make sure they are set as you think. You could also echo the filesets, but that involves more work, and is sort of tricky. You might try making some explicit includes in the webinf file set to see if that helps.
