Selecting a file
Hi,
We need to process the "newest" files which names' contain a determined
number of patterns and discard the rest. In example, we have a folder
that may contain several files:
EMD_ES_20021201_120301.xml
EMD_ES_20021201_143401.xml
EMD_ES_20021204_120301.xml
OK_ES_20021201_120301.xml
OK_ES_20021201_143401.xml
OK_ES_20021204_120301.xml
In this case I would like to process only the EMD_ES_20021204_120301.xml
and OK_ES_20021204_120301.xml
files.
What should I use in order to select the file? Regexp?
Thanks
Oscar

<properties>
<A do="true">hello</A>
<B do="false">world</B>
<C do="true">bar</C>
<C do="true">bar</C>
...
</properties>
IIRC you have to set the collapseAttributes="true" and not set the root
node to be part of the property name.

XML Property handling lists
Posted by Detlef Brendle <de...@canoo.com>.
Hi,
I would like to use the xmlProperty task to load a list of elements into my
project.
The list looks something like:
A=hello
A.do=true
B=world
B.do=false
C=foo
C.do=true
D=bar
D.do=true
...
The list is static.
How would the XML file look like to load this in my project ?

Thank you Stefan,
I've downloaded the purge task from www.dallaway.com/ant. I think it
will be of great use.
Best regards,
Oscar

I think so - alternatively you can do it with <script>.
There has been some discussion on a similar issue on this list that
lead to the <purge> task linked from Ant's "External Tools" page. You
may find some ideas in <purge>'s code and the discussion leading up to
it (see the archives of this list).

Hi Stefan,
I don't see how to use these selectors to select the filenames with the
latest timestamps. I figured out how to select the filenames with the
patterns but the problem is I must select only one file, and it must be
the one containing the highest date in the filename. I can't use the
dateselect because I don't know the timestamp that I'm looking for,
there maybe some files with the same date but different times, the
criteria is to get the latest. Is it the only way to create a custom
selector?
Thanks for your help
Regards,
Oscar
