I am having problems using a nested <srcfile /> element in an apply task
like this:
<apply executable="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\vb6.exe"
parallel="false">
<arg value="/m" />
<fileset dir="c:\ant\test\src">
<patternset>
<include name="*.vbp" />
</patternset>
</fileset>
<srcfile />
<arg value="/out" />
<arg value="c:\ant\test\errors.txt" />
<arg value="/outdir" />
<arg value="c:\ant\test\bin" />
</apply>
The problem seems to be that the <srcfile /> value is not inserted between
the arguments in the way that I would expect from the documentation. This
is shown by part of the -verbose output:
[apply] "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\vb6.exe" /m /out
c:\ant\test\errors.txt /outdir c:\ant\test\bin
I want to get the sourcefile to appear as an argument between the /m and
/out arguments.
When I remove the <srcfile /> tag the verbose output shows the inclusion of
the sourcefile value, at the end of the command as you would expect:
[apply] Executing "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\vb6.exe" /m
/out c:\ant\test\errors.txt /outdir c:\ant\test\bin
C:\ant\test\src\Registry\Registry.vbp
I fear that I am missing something obvious, and have read the docs carefully
and checked the distribution list archive for similar problems. So far I
have drawn a blank.
Anyway, suggestions/observations are warmly received!
Thanks,
Toby.
