combining fileset's
I am wondering if there is an easier way to do something. I have
several different tasks each requiring a slightly different classpath or
fileset. I have modified my build.xml so that I am sharing this
information as much as possible. You know if I add a jar I only have to
add it in one place in the build.xml and all the proper places pick up
the appropriate reference.
My solution has been to define pattern sets, then file sets using those
pattern sets, and then a classpath from the file sets (the code is at
the bottom). It works great but I am a programmer and I like to fiddle
so here is what I am asking.
Are there any ways to use just filesets and NO pattern sets. Ultimately
I would like to be able to combine to filesets say like so...
<fileset id="a" file="./myproject/xyzpdq..jar" />
<fileset id="b" dir="./myproject/redist/" />
<fileset id="c" dir="./myproject/" >
<fileset refid="a" />
<fileset refid="b" />
</fileset>
This would greatly simplify the script at the end because I currently
have to create a pattern set and a file set for each bit I need. I am
wondering if anyone has some clever recommendations since I can't do
what I just laid out (at least as far as I know)...
At least the when we add a jar now the build fails once then we add the
jar to the build.xml where as before it would fail several times in a
row each time showing a new place that needed the jar referenced LOL

Here is the code snippet....
<!-- jars needed to build the software but NOT needed at runtime -->
<patternset id="buildtime.patternset">
<include name="tools/resin3/lib/jsdk-24.jar" />
<include name="tools/resin3/lib/resin.jar" />
<include name="tools/batik/lib/*.jar" />
<include name="tools/xdoclet-1.2/lib/*.jar" />

Your example will do wonderfully. Very sheek and elegant thank you very
much....
Said another way I have enough complexity in my development projects no
need to add more...
thanks again,

Unless your actual needs are much more complicated
than your example, do check my last post before you
get too deep into coding your own selector.

I think I know what you are saying now. I have found this page on
programming custom selectors
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTypes/selectors-program.html
Which looks fairly straightforward. I am starting to code it now...
Thanks :-)

The bug is one thing, but what I have done (though
Dominique apparently disputes the validity of my
approach) is to define selectors that will yield the
smallest filesets I need, then mix & match them. If
it makes more sense, I can define a selector for the
complement to the files I actually want. The only
restriction here is that all the files must live under
the same directory. You have met that requirement in
the example below, so there is no need for you to wait
for enhancements:
<selector id="a.selector">
<filename name="xyzpdq.jar" />
</selector>
<selector id="b.selector">
<filename name="redist/**" />
</selector>
<fileset id="a" dir="./myproject">
<selector refid="a.selector" />
</fileset>
<fileset id="b" dir="./myproject">
<selector refid="b.selector" />
</fileset>
<fileset id="c" dir="./myproject">
<and>
<selector refid="a.selector" />
<selector refid="b.selector" />
</and>
</fileset>

Matt I am intrigued could you elaborate or give an example?
Are you suggesting I should create a custom selector that can take a
reference to another fileset?
Or is what I am trying to do (combine fileset A and fileset b into
fileset C) possible with the selector's that come with 1.6 ?
