Cannot get exclude attribute to work in a dirset.
Greetings.
Using 1.6.2 here. I am trying to exclude any directory which would contain
the string "old" in its name. Following the snippet of my build.xml:
<javac debug="on" verbose="off" destdir="${build}">
<src>
<dirset dir="/data/devel/java">
<exclude name="**/*old*/**"/>
<exclude name="**/*old*"/>
<exclude name="**/*old"/>
<exclude name="*old*"/>
</dirset>
</src>
</javac>
Yet, when I run, I see:
[javac] StockDB.old/CieDesc.java added as StockDB.old/CieDesc.class
doesn't exist.
First, anybody has a clue why StockDB.old is included in the list even
though I try to explicitly exclude any "old" directories?
Second, is there a feature in ant where one could simply test
dirsets/filesets (without coding)? It would be nice if one could create a
test build.xml file with only dirsets/filesets and have the results printed on
screen, to test if the patterns are ok.
Best regards,
Hans Deragon

javac requires source files. You cannot simply provide a source directory to
it. Thus ant must provide to javac all the files it got by scanning the
directories I provided. Seams like a bug...

I did. Nothing more comes out. :(

Try running the javac from the command line to see what it does. If it does
the same thing then it is something to do with the behavior of javac or
something to do with the dependencies within the source files that are being
compiled.
Another thing to try is running ant with -v to get the verbose output and
see if you can grock anything from that.

Thanks for the tip. The printed path is ok, i.e. does not contains any .old
directory, yet javac still goes into a .old directory:
[javac] StockDB.old/CieShareBrowser.java added as
StockDB.old/CieShareBrowser.class doesn't exist.
Here is what I tried.
<path id="srcpath">
<dirset dir="/data/devel/java">
<exclude name="**/*old*/**"/>
<exclude name="**/*obs*/**"/>
<exclude name="**/*org*/**"/>
</dirset>
</path>
<pathconvert refid="srcpath" property="srcpathprop" targetos="unix"/>
<echo message="srcpath is [${srcpathprop}]"/>
<javac debug="on" verbose="on" destdir="${build}">
<src refid="srcpath"/>
</javac>
The output looks like:
[echo] srcpath is
[/data/devel/java:/data/devel/java/Gui:/data/devel/java/Utilities:/data/deve
l/java/Utilities/Pcap:...
Could it be that because /data/devel/java is included, javac recursively
goes through that directory ignoring the exclusions?

Try something like this to see what is in the dirset then you can tinker
around with it until you get what you want.
<path id="apath">
<dirset dir="${env.ANT_HOME}">
<include name="**/**"/>
</dirset>
</path>
<pathconvert refid="apath" property="ap" targetos="windows"/>
<echo message="A path is [${ap}]"/>
