[Fwd: Regex in ]

[ma...@thewalrus.com]

Oops.  Sorry.  Wrong list.  I was using antrun and wasn't thinking.

-------- Original Message --------

I would like to fail if certain files make it into my build (failing on 
"outlawed" dependencies).
I've experimented with path regex expressions with <available>, such as 
the following:

       <fail>
           <condition>
               <available file="**/abc.jar" type="file" 
filepath="${basedir}/target"/>
           </condition>
           The file abc.jar is in the build (it should NOT be there)
       </fail>

This expresses what I want (failing if abc.jar exists anywhere), but 
does not work.  I've tried many variations--they all fail (as desired) 
when I name the file explicitly, but succeed (not desired) when I add "**".

I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks!
