Selecting files from disparate directories when the files are not in other directories

Hi

 

Is it possible to select a set of files from several directories only if they are not present in another set of directories

For example I have:

 

Dir1: a.txt

Dir2: b.txt

Dir3: c.txt

 

Directories holding the files to exclude

Dir4: a.txt

 

I would like to get b.txt and c.txt only (since a.txt is present in Dir1 and Dir4)

 

Regards,

You should look at the selectors in ant 1.7 (1.62?) they should allow you to
build the fileset by using the <present negate=true> selector in the
fileset.
