ant's cab task
Hi
I am newbie to work with cab files. I am trying to create a cab file using
ant's optional task. The following target I created is working fine when I
create a cab file with small directories. But I tried to create it with many
directories that have subdirectories etc...it tried adding lot of files then
it failed with error code 1.
I am wondering is there any size limitation of cab tool. I am using cab tool
provided by Microsoft in cab-sdk. I tried using cab tool provided my
microsoft in sdk-java. I got the same error.
I am using Ant version 1.3beta3 compiled on February 22 2001, Microsoft (R)
Cabinet Tool - Version 1.00.602.2 (08/14/97)
Am I doing something wrong? Am I using wrong cab tools?
Any suggestions?
<target name="cab">
<cab cabfile="crm.cab"
verbose="yes"
basedir="${Ipx}" />
</target>
verbose output ...(partly)
