Hello, still struggeling with keeping the locked flag of a file when zipping and unzipping. I followed exactly Thierries advice to use following syntax:
ditto -c -k --sequesterRsrc SrcFolder testditto.zip and though a locked file in Thierries environment is still locked after unzipping, in my environment (MacOS 10.5.8) the file isn't locked anymore after unzipping. So the difference must be in any other test parameter. What I have tried is following: - Actually I am not sure, if the flag gets lost while zipping or unzipping. Anyhow, after unzipping, controlling the information of the file, the flag is lost - I tried different zip tools for zipping and unzipping (ditto, 7zip, gui tar) with same result - Originally my locked file resides within a bundle, but I tested also with a single locked testfile in the source folder with same result - I tested different compression formats (zip, CPIO) with ditto with same result - When using the ditto option -v (just copying a file) the locked flag is kept, but not with -c (creating a compressed archive) - I also tested the ditto options: ditto -c -k --rsrc --extattr SrcFolder testditto.zip with same result So it seems like my problem isn't the zipping and I am overlooking something obvious outside the zipping process. My Mac knowledge is so small, that I really stuck here, what could cause such a different behavior: OS version, User permission (I have full rights), ditto handling,.? Any advice appreciated Tiemo _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
