Batch processing files

[Mark McKay <ma...@kitfox.com>]

I'm using a utility from the x3d group to batch convert VRML97 files 
into X3D.  This is provided as a jar file, and provides no support to 
define it as a taskdef.

Currently, to translate sphere.wrl into sphere.x3d, I'm calling:

        <java classname="iicm.vrml.vrml2x3d.vrml2x3d" 
classpath="c:/java/x3d/Vrml97ToX3dNist.jar">
            <arg file="data/3d/sphere.WRL"/>
            <arg file="data/3d/sphere.x3d"/>
        </java>

This is great for translating only one file, but I'd like to translate 
an entire directory full of *.wrl into *.x3d.  Better yet, I'd like my 
script to be smart enough to only translate the files that are newly 
added or out of date.  Can this be done with ant?
