fileset to gen args for java task ?

[Kai Bartels <ka...@picturesafe.de>]

Hi there!

(NB: I searched the ml archive for an answer but didn't find one.)

Background: I'd like to have the aspectj compiler started by ant.

I thought about using the java task to start the aspectj compiler. The compiler
needs a full list of source files to compile as command line arguments.
After reading the docs over and over I still see no way to get the result of
a fileset into the arguments of a java task (it's a lot of files!); <arg>
takes no embedded fileset and property doesn't do so, either.

Anyone a good idea how to manage this? I's like to avoid writing my own
ajc task! I feel there must be a way, but I can't see it.

Thanks, Kai

Kai,

If you're using Ant1.3, you should look into just adding support for the
aspectj compiler to the reworked <javac> task -- take a look at Jikes.java
and Jvc.java in the CVS tree (in .../taskdefs/compilers).
