Re: [NAnt-users] Adding Files to an Existing Fileset

Aquil,
 
Another option is to use our newly introduced patternset support:
http://nant.sourceforge.net/nightly/latest/help/types/patternset.html
 
For this, you need NAnt 0.86 Beta 1 or a recent nightly build.

I don't think you can do what you are after, but two other options spring to
mind.  One is as you suggest, which is to define the fileset and just add to
it.  This is OPK if you are just generating the fileset of .build files, but
may be a pain if you have to add it to several filesets.  E.g.

 

    <fileset id="project.buildfiles">

        <include name="foo/foo.build" />

        <include name="bar/bar.build" />

        <include name="baz/baz.build" />

    </fileset>

 

The other assumes that you only want the build files, and that there won't
be any build files you don't want to build.  In that case, just use the
wildcard to add them, for example:

 

    <fileset id="project.buildfiles">

        <include name="**/*.build" />

    </fileset>

 

This will automatically pick up all build files under your location, but of
course if you don't want to build a project, it won't work.

 

HTH,

Subject: [NAnt-users] Adding Files to an Existing Fileset

 

Hello All,
  I've searched pretty hard to find a way to add files to an existing
fileset, but I haven't come up with anything that I really like.  Does
anyone know of a way to perform something like the following

<property components="foo,bar,baz">

<foreach item="String" delim="," in="${component}" property="component">
  <fileset id="project.buildfiles">
    <include name="${path::combine(component,component+'.build')}" />
  </fileset>
</foreach>

Basically, what I am trying to do is dynamically add buildfiles to my
project whenever I add a new component just by adding it to the component
string.
I may over thinking this one as it is probably just as easy to add an
include line to an existing fileset.  Anyway, just wondering.

Also if you have opinions as to why this wouldn't be a good idea I would
like to hear those as well.
