newbie needs help: jar / fileset search path?

[James THOMAS <Ja...@enovia.com>]

Is there a way to specify as part of the classpath a jar file and a search
path for the jar file?

Here's an illegal example which demonstrates what I'm looking for:

<classpath>
     <fileset searchpath="/tmp/some_jars;/tmp/some_more_jars">
               <include name="jar1.jar"/>
               <include name="jar2.jar"/>
     </fileset>
</classpath>

So, in this example what I want is for ant to search the specified path for
each included file.  If the file is found, then add it to the file set.

Any ideas how I can get this behavior?


Thanks, James

You'd need to do it as:
  <classpath>
    <fileset dir="/tmp/some_jars">
      <include name="jar1.jar"/>
      <include name="jar2.jar"/>
    </fileset>
    <fileset dir="/tmp/some_more_jars">
      <include name="jar1.jar"/>
      <include name="jar2.jar"/>
    </fileset>
  </classpath>
