Aggregation of or ?

[Darryl Miles <da...@netbauds.net>]

The concept is a "fileset" or "path" is great, but I have to label each 
one, I can't aggregate them for 2 or more.

<path>
 <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique"/>
</path>

I want the above "fileset" to actually be 2 or more filesets as if I had 
written them out like:

<path>
  <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.one"/>
  <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.two"/>
</path>

But be labeled as a single label "my.fileset.unique".



Maybe a <filesetgroup> is needed:

<filesetgroup id="my.filesetgroup.foobar">
  <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.one"/>
  <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.two"/> 
</filesetgroup>


Where <filesetgroup refid="my.filesetgroup.foobar"/> could be used in 
_ANY_ place that a regular <fileset/> could be.

That worked thanks.  I aggregated the two labeled filesets into one <path>.


<path id="path.foobar.label">
  <path>
   <fileset refid="fset.foobar.label.part.one"/>
  </path>
  <path>
   <fileset refid="fset.foobar.label.part.two"/>
  </path>
</path>

<path/> elements can be nested, and so can be aggregated in the way you describe.
I'd suggest steering clear of handling filesets directly, instead always wrap them in a <path/>.

Unfortunately far too many 3d party tasks do use them directly - which is a pain :(
