Re: Conditional execution of tasks

[Antoine Levy-Lambert <an...@gmx.de>]

Hello Charles,

you can build a fileset using the different selector which will be the fileset you will copy. Read under concept and types in the manual what is the different selector.

Here a possible solution :

<target name="copy">
   <fileset dir="origin" id="tocopy"> 
       <different targetdir="copydir"/>
   </fileset>
   <pathconvert refid="tocopy" setonempty="false" property="tocopy"/>
   <copy todir="copydir">
       <fileset refid="tocopy">
    </copy>
</target>

<target name="postcopy" if="tocopy" depends="copy">
    <!-- do here something only if and only there was something to copy -->
</target>

regards,

Antoine
