We currently unzip the distro zip to a directory called apache-tuscany-sca-all-2.0-SNAPSHOT-dir. The assembly plugin will generate a directory called apache-tuscany-sca-all-2.0-SNAPSHOT.dir automatically (notice a dot instead of a hyphen). Is there a good reason why a hyphen was chosen instead of a dot when unzipping the zip? Problems on particular platforms maybe? Seems to ring a bell somehow but I can't recall why and I can't find anything obvious in the mail archive of the svn log.
I'm asking as I have a profile that just generates the directory and not the zips and I'd like to be able to rely on the directory being called ".dir" as opposed to "-dir" (means I can ommit the unzip stage altogether if the zip is not present). Works for me on Win XP. Regards Simon -- Apache Tuscany committer: tuscany.apache.org Co-author of a book about Tuscany and SCA: tuscanyinaction.com
