http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5661 File Permissions not preserved in replace task ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-01-02 15:08 ------- In the short run, copying file and directory permissions could be accomplished by creating a <copypermissions> task which extends/emulates the <copy> task but which would only copy file permissions. As this seems to be more of an issue with UNIX OS's and Perl tends to be widely available, a Perl script could be invoked for that instance of the task which would receive via its stdin a paired list of source and destination files or directories. For each line it reads in, it would do a stat() on the source file and set the corresponding permissions on the destination file. After the list of files, the task would close its output stream to Perl causing the script to exit. Since this Perl script would be invoked only once for the task instance rather than on a per file basis, performance should be very good. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
