This, along with bug 418 ($SP_HOME$ macro not expanded etc and bin files on SP install) have been resolved in both the trunk and 1.3 branch.

Thanks for catching these Tom.

I'd like to revisit this problem. I'm pretty sure there's a bug in
the extension build process. Here is a particular manifestation of
the bug:

- I have a subdirectory in src-conf:
custom/gridshib-idp/src-conf/conf
- There are files in this directory (of course) and they get added to
gridshib-idp.jar as expected.
- However, if I delete a file in src-conf/conf and rebuild, the file
*still* gets added to gridshib-idp.jar, which is a bug.
- Although the file has been deleted from src-conf/conf, it's still in
directory
custom/gridshib-idp/build/classes/conf
which is presumably one reason why it still gets added to gridshib-idp.jar.
- If I manually delete the bogus files from build/classes/conf, delete
the entire IdP installation directory, and re-install, the deleted
files are *still* in gridshib-idp.jar.
- If I manually delete gridshib-idp.jar from custom/gridshib-idp/dist
and custom/lib, the bogus files disappear (finally).

So it appears that the extension directory is not getting sufficiently
cleaned out prior to a build. Can anyone confirm this bug?

Assuming nothing changed between the last and most current time that you
ran the script than no, it won't replace the jar. It's a feature of the
Ant copy task, unless explicitly instructed to do so, it will not
overwrite an existing file with a new if there is no change (which I
assume it determines by file size).

Should <extension>.jar in custom/lib be replaced every time the
install target is run? I think it should but experiments indicate
otherwise. Is this a bug or a feature?
