How to add a file to existing zip archive into a existing folder
Hi All,
I have a zip archive, which I want to update with adding a new file to
specific folder in the zip archive.
Example :
I have abc.zip containing the directory structure :
mainfolder\a.jar
mainfolder\subfolder\b.jar
My problem is I want to add a c.properties to mainfolder\subfolder. But I
did not find any such example in the documentation.
Though files can be added, but not specified somewhere if somebody wants to
add to a particular directory in zip archive.
The following example adds c.properties to the root of testfile.zip but for
me it is not possible to add this file to a specific folder in the said zip
archive.
------------------------------------------------------------------
<project name="test" default="main">
<property environment="env" />
<property name="zip.dir" value="C:\testzip" />
<target name="main">
<zip basedir="${zip.dir}" destfile="${zip.dir}\testfile.zip"
update="true">
<include name="c.properties" />
</zip>
</target>
</project>
Thanks for any pointers.
Ravi.

Use <zip> and <zipfileset> tasks.
<zip destfile="${dist}/abc.zip">
<zipfileset dir="dir" prefix="mainfolder/subfolder"/>
</zip>
