Looking for example: using id of type as a reference.




Is there an example of the task that uses a type like filterset where the
filterset is referenced by its id as in (I need to reuse filtersets from
different places in the build):

   <!-- Define the filterset reference by id -->
    <filterset id="filterset.reference">
      <! -- Blah, blah, blah: add nested filter elements -->
    </filterset>

   <target name="target-one", description="do first thing with filterset
using id">
       <!-- Yakity, yakity, yak : do something with the filterset by
referencing it via its id -->
   </target>

  <target name="target-two", description="do second thing with filterset
using id">
       <!-- Yadda, yadda, yadda : do something  ELSE with the filterset by
referencing it via its id yet again-->
   </target>

This is quest is for something similiar to extendsible and re-usable
classpaths....

RE: Looking for example: using id of type as a reference.

Posted by "Mani G. Iyer" <iy...@rcn.com>.
One example as given in the Manual under filtersets is:

<filterset id="myFilterSet" begintoken="%" endtoken="*">
  <filter token="DATE" value="${TODAY}"/>
</filterset>
<copy file="${build.dir}/version.txt" toFile="${dist.dir}/version.txt">
  <filterset refid="myFilterSet"/>
</copy>
