Decompress tgz files using Ant

Question

How do we decompress TGZ file with Ant on Windows machine? I have been trying:

<gunzip  src="${ARTIFACT}/${platform}.tgz"/> 
<untar src="${ARTIFACT}/${platform}.tar" dest="${InstallDir}.${LICLIENT_VERSION}.test"/>

But it does not work.

Answer 1

Try something like this

<target name="unpack">
    <untar src="test.tar.gz" dest="test" compression="gzip"/>
</target>
