I'm trying to create a tar ball with a specific base directory included in the tar file. For example, I have a "dist" directory that I want to tar for distribution. However, when I set the base directory as "dist", I get the files in the dist directory, but tar does include "dist" as part of the file path. So when users extract the tar, all the files end up in the directory where it was extracted. What I want is to have "dist" as the base directory inside the tar. For Example:
dist/jdom.jar dist/html/index.html etc. instead of: jdom.jar html/index.html No matter what I set base dir or tarfileset to, I can't get the tar task to include the base directory. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem? I've searched the web, the archives, and news groups without any luck.
