Deleteing directories

I am looking to delete all directories under a certain directory (call it
root), but I do not want to delete any of the files in this root directory.

Thanks,

Don Kichline

Use selectors:

  <delete includeemptydirs="true">
    <fileset dir="root">
      <or>
        <filename name="*" negate="true"/>
        <type type="dir"/>
      </or>
    </fileset>
  </delete>
