| replace an entry in a zip file? | replace an entry in a zip file? 2007-06-14 - By Cyril Sagan
GOAL: To replace one entry in a zip file with an updated file.
I cannot find an elegant way to do this, short of <unzip>'ing the archive, replacing the file of interest and then re-<zip>. It seems there should be a better way. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

FWIW, It looks like the Ant 1.6.5 source code *tried* to support this. Note that the comment describes a the setting "overwrite" for the duplicate attribute of <zip> task which would provide exactly what I want, the bad news is that it doesn't seem to be implemented. :-(
I've included the comment, and the duplicate logic below.
