Hi, I seem to have an odd problem with xargs and jar. I'm not sure if I can isolate a simple test case but essentially it only seems to be taking some of the input files.
This seems to work suggesting the file list is acceptable to jar: $ more latest65day | jar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wtf2.zip>jarlog2.txt this, however, only includes a some files, apparently lopping off certain directories: $ more latest65day | xargs jar -cvf wtf2.zip>jarlog.txt $ xargs --version GNU xargs version 4.3.8 Built using GNU gnulib version 2007-05-26 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /cygdrive/e/new/temp $ jar -V jar (fastjar) 0.92-gcc Copyright 1999, 2000, 2001 Bryan Burns Copyright 2002 Free Software Foundation Thoughts on diagnostic process of known problems? At first, I thought it had to do with errors encountered during the jarring but I think I've eliminated all of those ( missing files mostly). Also, as I indicated before, my configuration is suspect but I wouldn't expect it to cause problems like this. Thanks.
