[Cobertura-devel] duplicate copies of cobertura.ser file??

[bastard m. <bas...@ho...>]

I've been working with getting cobertura reports to generate properly and so 
far i've noticed that even if i specify the same datafile location for both 
cobertura-instrument and cobertura-report tags, an additionally coberura.ser 
file is stored 2 directories up from my basedir. This additional file causes 
the reports to display 0% (line & branch) coverage. I've haven't had any 
luck with the cobertura-merge tag, it doesn't seem to be working properly. 
Anyway I've decided to point to the ser file that is 2 directories up when 
reporting and just move it to a specified locaiton when done generating the 
reports. This is a very ugly hack. I was wondering if anyone could help me 
find a quick and clean way to handle this such that only one file is ever 
generated in the proper location.

Thanks in advance,
