EVALUATION
Zip files were designed for MS-DOS floppies.
The standard file format contains no ownership or Unix style
permission information.
There are some extensions to the file format that would allow
maintaining this kind of information, but it can never be guaranteed
(there is no requirement that zip files contain such "extended" metadata)
and it would be a lot of work to implement and (especially!) test.
This has caused a escalation in application server.
zip/jar files won't contain any information metadata and that is not required also.
on unix system the file information can be obtained by say
ls -l abc.jar this will give completes details.
sun's won product setup sdk provides some utilities for changing ownership of files. if more information is needed for fixing this please contact me
