Hello, Your web application sure is an unusual one. I'm just wondering how you manage to execute the C/C++ executables in your war file. I think setting the -x bit would make use of the same mechanism. Regarding the shared library files that need to be copied into the WEB-INF/lib directory, i suggest that you install those into your internal or local repo and declare those as dependencies of your war project.

Hope this is the right forum to post these questions (the following are running on a Unix platform): I'm using maven to build a web application (i.e. to generate a war file). I have some c/c++ excutables in a directory which need to be packaged in the WAR file. I've noticed that all the executables have the excution bit (x) removed and they become read-only files after the build. Is there a way to preserve the "x" bit? For now, I manually run a "chmod u+x" on these files, but I'm hoping for a better solution. Also, I have some c/c++ shared library files that need to be copied into WEB-INF/lib directory after the build. Since maven generates the WEB-INF/lib directory for me, how can I copy other third party libraries into WEB-INF/lib without doing it manually after the build? Thanks. Lucie
