Delete problem with temp files
Hi - anyone able to help please . . .
Ok, I know this is probably going to sound daft but,
I am trying to get a clean target to work. It is supposed to delete all
emacs backup files from the source tree (under win NT) Ant 1.3 alpha Nov 07.
I have a patternset set to "**/*~" and a delete task that has a fileset
dir="${src}" and the just mentioned patternset being referenced.
If I set the patterset to say **/*.bak" it works but for "**/*#" and "**/*~"
the delete does nothing and does not error either.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong ?

Ah, the joys of being a newbie! Per your suggestion, I went to the site and
saw this:
"...The binary distribution doesn't contain the optional tasks - compiled
versions of those are distributed in a separate file: optional.jar. Placing
this file in the $ANT_HOME/lib directory will make those tasks available..."
I think it was a matter of not seeing what you weren't looking for! Thanks to
you, I visited a second time with my eyes open. Thanks again - MOD

Unfortunately not. I am not sure if there is a licensing problem with any
of extra jars but when I finally get my box on the network I hope to add
all the required jars in lib directory of CVS. This will make it *much*
easier to build stuff.

Thank you, Peter. I kept thinking that I got the .jar file when I rebuilt the

When bootstrapping you have to have the junit jar file in your classpath
(ie in lib directory). So goto www.junit.org and download it ;)

Where Is The JUnit Tag Implementation?

Apologies in advance - I missed any answer to this question.
Where can I find the implementation behind the <junit> tag? I downloaded the
latest source from last Thursday and bootstrapped it, but I couldn't find the
implementation for JUnit, so Ant complained. Is it available somewhere, or
is it an app waiting for someone to flesh out? Thank you. - MOD

Huw,
Try adding defaultexcludes="no" to your fileset.

Does it work if you use a capital W in Windows (don't have Windows
here to check). Looking at the code it seems to be case sensitive.

You're right, I picked a bad example. Your example works fine as long as I
leave out os="windows". If I include it, however, doesn't run on my Windows
2000 machine.
Is this a known problem. I checked the FAQ and didn't see it mentioned.
Thanks again,
Ron

I may be wrong (as I don't have the slightest understanding of Windows
8-), but ISTR dir is not an executable but a shell builtin.
Does
<exec executable="cmd" os="windows">
<arg line="/c dir" />
</exec>
or something similar work?

Help with exec

Hello,
I just started using ANT this week and am rapidly growing to rely upon it.
However, I'm having trouble with the "exec" task. On my Windows 2000 machine
when I add the os="windows" attribute, it fails to execute. But when I echo
the "os" property it prints "windows". Example below.
<target name="test">
<echo message="${os}" />
<exec executable="dir" os="windows"/>
</target>
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Huw,
The excludes elements are additive. You are adding to the set of things to
be excluded. excludes="" adds nothing to the set. It doesn't reset the
current excludes and that includes those added by default.

Errm....
Found it - needed to put defaultexcludes=no in the fileset.
Question: why does excludes="" not override this I would have thought it did
?
