Basic wildcard question
Hello,
I am trying to understand the ** wildcard when used in include subtask.
Here is the line I don't understand :
<include name="**/*.txt"/>
as opposed to
<include name="*/*.txt"/>
What is the difference between those two lines? They seem to display the
same behavior.
Here is the xml in its entirety.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="monprojet" default="core" basedir=".">
<target name="core">
<copy todir="./root_one/leaf_two/">
<fileset dir="./root_one/">
<include name="**/*.txt"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
</target>
</project>
The directory structure is as follows:
root_one
--leaf_one
--toto.txt
--leaf_two
Thanks in advance,
Julien Martin.
