I need to sent an email with zipped project which contains maven folders eg. - META-INF. My email don't allow me to sent such files (filltering emails). I need to change the name of that folder META-INF. Am I able to do that without losing the proper hierarchy of project?

  • You could write a script to do this transformation (and the reverse transformation at the other end). – Oliver Charlesworth Apr 02 '18 at 09:45
  • Change it to `FOO-BAR` or whatever, then in the body of the email say "I, Michael, have changed the name of META-INF to FOO-BAR". Or better yet, do something sane like use Git. – Boris the Spider Apr 02 '18 at 09:47
  • I can't. It is needed to be fully functional - press start and it should compile, I can't change names directly – Michael Apr 02 '18 at 09:48
  • Then do something sane like use Nexus, Artifactory or better yet, a Docker Repository. Honestly, this is 2018 - sharing programs via email is not only inconvenient but unbelievably dangerous. – Boris the Spider Apr 02 '18 at 09:49
  • It's for recruitment purpose. It have to be throw mail, and ready to compile. Could you give me any other ideas ? – Michael Apr 02 '18 at 09:53
  • If you want to share code, then open a GitHub account upload the code and share the link. TBH, if a company I was applying for _didn't_ do that, I would be very troubled by their development practices... – Boris the Spider Apr 02 '18 at 09:53
  • As I said, I can't do that. I need to sent it via emai. I know how to do that for google disc's, github etc. but I need to follow the instruction – Michael Apr 02 '18 at 09:57
  • Upload the file to some file sharing service and send a link. – lexicore Apr 02 '18 at 10:05
  • @lexicore wouldn't you be somewhat dubious of a company that shares code via a file sharing service - like we're in pre-CVS days? I would... – Boris the Spider Apr 02 '18 at 10:06
  • @BoristheSpider Somewhat dubious, yes. But not K.O. for me personally. Sometimes you have to put up with HR bullshit to get the position. – lexicore Apr 02 '18 at 10:13
  • There is no way to change META-INF folder ? I can use only MAIL – Michael Apr 02 '18 at 10:15
  • No, this is not. This is part of the [jar spec](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jar/jar.html). – Boris the Spider Apr 02 '18 at 10:48
