Re: Trouble with release instructions and md5sum.exe

[Francois Orsini]

Hi kathey,

Am guessing (and as you did) that the java Runtime.exec() (called by ant) ultimately calls Win32 CreateProcess() and causes this last one to fail as the path to the md5.ksh script is in a Unix form (/marsden/bin/md5.ksh) - Hence Win32 CreateProcess() cannot deal with Cygwin path conventions and would not be able to locate it...

Now what's puzzling is why the MD5 hash differs between the 2 different invocation modes...
