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) [cab] [cab] Microsoft (R) Cabinet Tool - Version 1.00.602.2 (08/14/97) [cab] Copyright (c) Microsoft Corp 1994-1997.
