[PATCH] deltree as MatchingTask (was Re: make clean equivalent)

[Stefan Bodewig <bo...@bost.de>]

I will followup on the other mails soon.

This patch will make deltree a MatchingTask which means you can
specify

<deltree dir="src">
<include name="**/*.class" />
</deltree>

and it should delete all the .class files in src (and all empty
directories as well).

Note that you now might have to explicitly disable default excludes
to get the old behavior of deltree (maybe this should be the
default?).

No documentation patches for now as the part about directory based
tasks needs a brush up.

It seems obvious now but it just didn't occur to me.

Thanks!

I am doing what I use to do in shell scripts, and I sort of have nothing
against it, but it could be done nicer, I reckon. There is heaps of
repeating, but it is pretty readable:


<property name="classpath" value="${java.home}/lib/rt.jar" />

<property name="classpath" value="${classpath}:../lib/xml.jar" />
<property name="classpath" value="${classpath}:../lib/jsdk.jar" />
<property name="classpath" value="${classpath}:../lib/javalib.jar" />
<property name="classpath" value="${classpath}:../lib/binkco.jar" />
<property name="classpath" value="${classpath}:../lib/ecs-1.2.jar" />
<property name="classpath" value="${classpath}:../lib/ifxjdbc.jar" />
<property name="classpath" value="${classpath}:../lib/junit.jar" />

Long Property Values

[Jason Sando <js...@think1up.com>]

Is there any way to break up a long <property> tag?  My "classpath" property
ends up wrapping or going off the screen:

    <property name="classpath"
value="${java.home}/lib/rt.jar:../lib/xml.jar:../lib/jsdk.jar:../lib/javalib
.jar:../lib/binkco.jar:../lib/ecs-1.2.jar:../lib/ifxjdbc.jar:../lib/junit.ja
r" />

Thanks,

I posted a similar patch on 5/4 that got no direct response.
