specifying include files in a in the 

I'd like to specify a list of files to include in the <lib> inside a <war> task.
  Looks like this:
  
   <lib dir="c:/lib">
        
            <includes name="webService.jar,
              common.jar,
              utils.jar,/>
   
  </lib>
  
  <lib> specifies a <fileset> which I though supported  <includes> with a comma separated list of files to include.   However I get an error saying that <lib> doesn't support includes  and I'm forced to change to <include> (without the 's') and  include each file individually.
  How can I get around this and specify a list of files?
  
  Thnx.

ok, that's a way of doing it but why does the  documentation for say 'fileset' and the attribute 'includes' say that  you can specify a list of comma separated file names??

Sorry, my fault. I see now what you want.
First if you want to include a list of comma separated files you can use
this:




Second if you want to include a set of files you can use this:



     


where you point to the directory you want to use and exclude certain files.

Hope that helps!

Sorry, my fault. I see now what you want.
First if you want to include a list of comma separated files you can use
this:

<lib dir="${basedir}/WEB-INF/lib" includes="WEB-INF/web.xml,
WEB-INF/my.xml"/>

Second if you want to include a set of files you can use this:

<lib dir="thirdparty/libs">
     <exclude name="jdbc1.jar"/>
</lib>

where you point to the directory you want to use and exclude certain files.

Hope that helps!

That will work with 'include' but it doesn't like 'includes' and then a list of comma separated file names. 
  That is the problem.
  
  And yes...forgot the end quote there...typo in my post.

0h, and also you forgot to close your quotations marks here:
              utils.jar,/>
Doesn't ant complains it?

I can't see what is the problem with :

<fileset dir="c:\lib">
      <include name="**/*.jar"/>
</fileset>

0h, and also you forgot to close your quotations marks here:
              utils.jar,/>
Doesn't ant complains it?
