Help with war file

[Rez <po...@hotmail.com>]

I'm not sure if it's possible any other way to pack a folder and all of its subfolders and files into a war file, preserving their path and folder structure, other than using the "prefix" attribute of the zipfileset task.
I would like my war file (testproject.war) to have folderx & all its files at its root, so currently I'm using
 
<zipfileset dir="folderx" includes="**/*" prefix="folderx"/>
 
But it's creating a problem when the files are deployed under jboss and my url looks like something like this:
 
http://localhost:8080/testproject/folderx/folderx/images/test.gif
 
As you can see it's repeating the folder name twice.
 
Thanks

Thanks Mark.  I did omit the prefix attribute and files at the root of folderx got dumped at the root of the war file and since I do have some files with duplicate names at the root already and the duplicate attribute in the war task being set to fail, my war target failed miserably.  I do want the folderx entry in the war file but I was wondering if there's any other way possible to do this besides using zipfileset.  I'll play around to see if I can fix it. Thanks again.

Can you use the war task instead:-

The zip examples clearly show that the zip structures have the prefix
added followed by the source dir, why don't you just drop the prefix in
this instance?
