Ant doesn't invoke tar on the command line but uses some internal Java classes. It may be possible to wrap a TarOutputStream into a (B)Zip(2)OutputStream, I haven't tried it. If that doesn't work, I don't see a way to work without an intermediate file. If it is fairly simple, I'm sure somebody will send in a patch to enable it ;-) Stefan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
