search directories and putting search result in a variable

[akentner <ak...@gmx.net>]

Hi there, 

I'm a ant newbie. I've already search for my topic, but I haven't found my
problem.

So my problem:

I have a tmp directory where other directories have been created (names are
hashes). In an ant job, how can I find the last generated hash directory and
put the result in a variable, so i can use it as dir parameter in <exec
dir="...." ..../>

Thanks for help

Greets, Alex

It takes path elements as an argument, though, so I don't know whether
it takes directories into account.
