copy

Hi *,

Is it possible with ant to copy or move files/dir from a directory which 
name I don't know exactly. Something like:

    <move todir="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}/sw/ant" overwrite="true">
      <fileset dir="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}/sw/apache-ant-*/">
        <include name="*/**"/>
      </fileset>
    </move>

instead of

    <move todir="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}/sw/ant" overwrite="true">
      <fileset dir="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}/sw/apache-ant-1.6.2/">
        <include name="*/**"/>
      </fileset>
    </move>

I'm not able to find a solution.

As you probably will see, I want to avoid the reference to a version 
number which can change. But I don't want to change the build file every 
time the version number changes.

Any hints would be appreciated.

Regards
Franz

You should be able to use the include nested element to do this like:

    <move todir="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}/sw/ant"
overwrite="true">
      <fileset dir="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}">
         <include name="sw/apache-ant-*/*"
      </fileset>
    </move>
