Hi, While looking at the deployment codes, I was tired of packing/unpacking the application package, actually, what we do is just to add some Geronimo specific configuration files, updating some configuration files. IIRC, in one deployment process, we need to a. copy the jar file to a temp folder b. extract the zip file c. package the directory for the application analysis d. repackage the directory for the final installation.
How about using the TrueZip, it is a ASL 2.0 opensource project, and seems it supports updating the zip file virtually, even the nested zip file. Project URL : https://truezip.dev.java.net/ Any comment ? thanks. -- Ivan
