convert ascii to ebcdic files using ant

[Mark Lybarger <ml...@gmail.com>]

is there a way using ant to convert a folder full of ascii text files into 
ebcdic files? we're pulling cvs on a linux box and want to be able to build 
the ear for deployment on zos. for some reason, some of the files _have_ to 
be ebcdic encoded files. i think the issue is that the ebcdic files are 
being looked at only by the IBM Http Server, and not by the WAS server.

anyway, suggestions would be welcome.

thanks!
