copy task and file name case problem
Hi,
I am having this weird issue which has me stumped and don’t know where to
look further.
It’s the standard <copy> task and I have a fileset.
<copy todir="${build.src}" verbose="true" >
<fileset dir="${basedir}/../src">
<include name="**/*.java" />
</fileset>
What is happening is the java files when they get copied to the target
directory lose the casesensitive filename and obviously the subsequent
compile fails.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I had got that checked and went through the speel of restarting the box but
it was still giving me problems. since you provided the same direction i
tried again and it works..woot!!
should have done this earlier but for the future if anyone runs into the
same problem.
Clearcase is hosted on a linux box and I have my eclipse workspace on
windows. The source files resides on a CC view and is gettting copied to
another location in the view.
thanks for your help.

If the source is coming from a ClearCase view on a Windows machine where the ClearCase server is hosted by UNIX, I think it is likely an inter-op issue which can be resolved with a ClearCase setting.
On the Windows ClearCase Client -
Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> ClearCase -> and select the MVFS tab.
Make sure "Case preserving" is checked.
IIRC that requires a reboot.

Re: copy task and file name case problem
Posted by Avlesh Singh <av...@gmail.com>.
Sounds really weird and cannot be justified in context of the copy task.
Try the copy with overwrite="true" parameter. My guess is that because of
some old exercise your files exist in the target directory with lowercase
names. The copy task, by default, does not copy a file to the target
directory unless it is modified. The "overwrite" parameter will force a
copy.
Alternatively, you may try clearing the target directory before running the
copy task (to get rid of existing lowercase name files).
In all my suggestions, I have assumed that you are on the windows platform.
If the problem persists, please post more details including your operating
platform and Ant version.
Cheers

I could not understand this. Do you mean to say that *.java files are
getting copied but not the *.JAVA files? If yes, then that might happen
depending on your underlying operating system. On a windows platform it
would work as you expect it to but not on unix.
