Unpack War files

           Summary: Unpack War files
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.13
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: korfut@lycos.com


The problem occur when Tomcat try to unpack a war file.
I discovered that ANT 1.5 make a directory name lower case when it found it is 
all upper case, automatically, when creating a war (jar) file.
On the other side, Tomcat is case sensitive concerning the WEB-INF directory.
What happen,the application is not loaded because it can't find the web.xml.
That happen just with web.xml, All the other files under lib or classes are 
zipped correctly. The problem, i believe is inside Tomcat 4.1.12 and up because 
opening the war file with winzip is possible see that web-inf is lower case 
(just for web.xml) AND the same war file deployed on Tomcat 4.1.8 works fine.
