hi there, i've noticed that this cygwin-distributed application
("/bin/jar.exe") often corrupts files it archives, especially binaries, the
evidence mainly being that md5sums change after the archiving/dearchiving
operation. text files also sometimes get corrupted, but so far i've only
seen ignorable whitespace corruption. thus, i've switched to sun
microsystem's j2sdk-1.4 jar.exe program until this issue gets resolved.
thanks so much -- mike andrews---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- mike andrews, architecture & algorithms, TEL +1 908 947 7085, FAX +1 908 947 7090 http://www.flarion.com, bedminster one, 135 route 202-206 south, bedminster, nj 07921 **************************************************************************** ******************************************* This email may contain confidential and privileged material for the sole use of the intended recipient.
