bug in DeploymentPackageTask on Windows

Hi,

Running the DeploymentPackageTask on Windows leads to the this weird 
error: "Error building deployment package: C" ....?

This is caused by a file URL that is constructed in a platform dependent 
way that does not work in windows. The "C" in the message comes from the 
root cause: UnknownHostException ;-).

The platform independent way is to use File.toURI().toURL(). I attached 
a patch (tested on windows and osx).

This patch also includes a warning when no files were selected, which, 
in cases no files are found, is a lot more usefull than logging the 
files that are found ;-) (especially for newbies)

Do you want me to open a Jira issue?

Regards
Peter
