Subject: SCP task to preserve exact time stamp


/*
   I have a requirement like when ever i do build, i need to copy all
database files/folders from build machine to UNIX machine.

Right now i am uasing SCP Ant task for secure copy. But  it is not
preserving time stamp for all files and folder.

So i went for 'scp' unix command in exec -ant task . It is preserving
time
stamp for some files and folders only.

Could some body help me,  in preserving time stamps for all folders and
files.
*/

the parameters -p -r should do the job

from the scp man page =

"...
-p   Preserves modification times, access times, and modes
      from the original file.

-r   Recursively copy entire directories.
..."

here's a snippet from one of my scripts =

<for list="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" param="copyfile">
<sequential>
<exec executable="ksh" failonerror="true">
<arg value="scp -p -r ./@{Lum}/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
svcscmcs@@@@@{server}:${scptarget}/@{Lum}/opt/[EMAIL PROTECTED]" />
</exec>
</sequential>
</for>


Regards, Gilbert
