Corrupted Clover-for-Ant 4.0.3 (zip64 extended information error)

[Marek Parfianowicz]

Running a build with clover.jar from Clover-for-Ant 4.0.3 fails with an error like this:

BUILD FAILED

c:\clover-ant-4.0.3\tutorial\build_completed.xml:19: The following error occurred while executing this line:

Error reading project file jar:file:/c:/clover-ant-4.0.3/lib/clover.jar!/cloverlib.xml: central directory zip64 extended information extra field's length doesn't match central directory data.  Expected length 0 but is 16

This error does not happen with Clover 4.0.2 or older. Does it mean that Clover 4.0.3 JAR is corrupted?

[Marek Parfianowicz · Accepted solution]

Clover 4.0.3 JAR is not corrupted. Ant contains a bug related with implementation of ZIP64 extended information field. This error occurs in Ant 1.9.0/1.9.1 and has been fixed in Ant 1.9.2

Solution: use Ant 1.9.2 or later.
