Ok, I have coded ant-type magic attribute over lunch.
<target name="run" depends="init">
<typedef name="myfileset" classname="MyFileSet" classpath="classes"/>
<mkdir dir="output"/>
<copy todir="output">
<fileset ant-type="myfileset" dir="src" newattribute="Hi"/>
</copy>
</target>
I will update Patch 19446 over the weekend with
the changes.
Peter.
