RE: [Nant-users] fileset parameterisation

[Darren S. <dsy...@op...>]

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the clarification.  I was working from the =
Fundamentals/Filesets
docs which suggested that the Includes attribute on Fileset consists of:

"comma-separated list of patterns of files that must be included; all =
files
are included when omitted."

But this didn't appear to be true.

I'll try the includesList although I think my build files will turn =
rather
ugly emitting a separate file to hold sources/refs file specs.

I may have a look over the developer archives - get an idea of the =
general
thoughts on this issue.  It's a really powerful feature of Ant and I'm
struggling to share build rules across multiple components without it.

There have discussions about supporting an id/ref system for naming =
filesets
and really any task. But no code has be put in cvs :)

As for the format of the fileset in text file it is not csv (comma
separated) but one per line.
<fileset>
    <includesList name=3D"filename.txt"/>
</fileset>

There were some discussions about changing the name of the includesList
element, but the current code reflects that sample above.
