Passing files to a java target

I would like to send a list of filenames to a java target. i.e.

java myProgram c:\root c:\root\test\bean.properties
c:\root\test\bean.properties c:\root\boat\try2\bean.properties
c:\root\fish\bean.properties

Below is as close as I cen get. The problem is that it won't recognize
codeGen.path.

C:\ksa_dev\build.xml:435: Reference ${codeGen.path} not found.

Hi Jonathan,

Have you tried to use pathref="codeGen.path" instead of ${codeGen.path}? I
haven't got the time to test it, but I think that should do what you want.
