http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5036 Zip and friends task enhancement request ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-05 11:53 ------- My approach would be to neither use foreach nor update="true" at all. Instead I'd either use <zipgroupfileset> on individual intermediate archives or filesets directly. You say that you "don't want my existing .zip file to be blown away and re-created from scratch each time I try to add a subgroup" - well, honestly you'll do so whether you say update="true" or not. The way update="true" works is that it copies the existing archive, creates a new one with the new content from your various sources and the adds the remaining stuff from the old archive (via an internal zipfileset). If you have access to all files that are supposed to be in your archive at once - you'll probably get a real performance boost by using update="false" instead. update="true" will probably be faster if your filesystem is real slow on directory traversal, though.
