I need few filesets to be referenced at a later point. The following is the
skeleton of my build.xml file.
<project name="...." default="init">
<target name="init">
<property name="src.dir" value="d:\src"/>
</target>
<fileset dir="${src.dir} id="fileset.1">
<include name="**/.class"/>
</fileset>
<target name="create.ejbjar" depends="init">
<ejbjar ...>
.
<support refid="fileset.1"/>
.
.
</ejbjar>
</target>
</project>
When I execute, the build file fails saying that directory ${src.dir} does
not exist. It looks like ant is doing some fileset initiliazation before it
calls the default target. It works perfectly, if I hardcode the fileset
dir, instead of giving a property reference. Is there a workaround for this
problem?
I am writing a generic ejbjar target which can be passed the required
paramters (descriptordir, support files etc), so that I can use to create
any EJB I need. Since the support element of ejbjar task needs a fileset, I
need a way of passing a fileset to the generic EJB target. Is there any
other way of doing this without passing filesets.
Thanks,
