Corrupted keystore

['Dipo Odumosu]

Hello,
Oddly enough, today's not a question. Just something I noticed.

I stored a key in a keystore and saved it to a file, so my jPOS app
could use the key. I saved the keystore into my cfg folder and my module
threw an IOException, telling me the keystore had been tampered with, or
the password was wrong. Since I hardcoded the password, I assumed the
keystore was corrupt, but why?

Eventually, I looked at the Jetty6 and Jetty7 modules, and saw that the
keystores were not saved in cfg, but in lib. I changed the location of
the keystore and my deploy descriptor to point to the lib folder instead
of the config folder, and the problem was fixed.

I wanted to place this as a warning that (binary?) files placed in the
cfg folder might be mangled while running ant.

Regards.

This behavior is just in *nix systems, not on OSX (i dont know in Window$) and i wasn't able to find another solution than putting it in lib folder.

I agree that a warning would be nice.

Problem is the filtering the ant build makes over the files in the cfg, this preprocessing is to replace "MACRO" variables like ports or database, to be able to simply compile the project for different environments (production, test, dev). A suggestion could be using a common folder cfgbin (or cfg/bin if this path can be excluded from the filtering easly, don't remember the exact code  that does this).
