Build errors when source tar.gz extracted with Winzip

           Summary: Build errors when source tar.gz extracted with Winzip
           Product: Cocoon 2
           Version: 2.1.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I downloaded cocoon-2.1.2-src.tar.gz and used Winzip to extract it to a directory.  
When I ran the build.bat script, I got a number of errors that stopped it building 
which were due to java and/or lib directories being missing for various directories 
under src/blocks.

I suspect this is actually a Winzip problem rather than a Cocoon one - if I recall 
correctly, Winzip doesn't recreate directory entries from archives, only files.  
However, to make life easier for us Winzip users, would it be possible to include a 
dummy file in any such empty directories in the source tree so that they'll get 
created? (or just change the build script to handle the fact that these directories 
may not be there?)
