The problem turns out to be the inclusion of Mac OS X hidden files in the
release tree that are related to how Mavericks stores meta information about
files and directories.
For example, here is the content of the model Resources directory:
._Info.plist Info.plist ._Inrax.eomodeld
Interesting!
The place to suppress inclusion of these files is in each project’s
*.patternset files in the woproject directory at the root of the project.
Eclipse may be hiding this directory from you as normally you wouldn’t need to
modify it.
Inside are several .patternset files that
I have been developing on Mavericks for some time and haven’t had this issue.
There is no underscore convention file naming in any of my projects.
Is it possible that these projects' files were initially stored on a file
server/share that used the underscore naming for file metadata? That is
Hi Tim,

your development machine using Ant. Right?

metadata files John is describing in any of my projects or elsewhere on my

John,
Hidden underscore files generally only show up when you are using a file system
that doesn’t support resource forks. If you drive is HFS+ then you shouldn’t

But I think your problem may be with your workflow (specifically with tar), not
the filesystem.
Hi
Sorry to come late to the party.
I believe those files which have the prefix ._ are Apple Double files and
they contain the resource fork and possibly extended attributes of files which
are not on HFS.
You might have luck checking for any extended attributes before archiving the
file as I
