http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20687 [PATCH] Enhance ExecOn with DirSets Summary: [PATCH] Enhance ExecOn with DirSets Product: Ant Version: 1.6Alpha (nightly) Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] As per my corespondance with Stefan on the dev list, http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ant-dev&m=105367047624558&w=2 I have added dirset support to ExecOn.java (and thus to attrib, chmod, chgrp, and chown). Making it work and not messing up the old type=file but not requiring type=dir to use dirsets took a little thinking. I settled on an implementation that esentially checks to see if it is handling a dirset and gives the nested dirset priorety over the type="file". This seems to provide full back compatability and the nice feature that you can still control the behavior of filesets with type="file" and then slip in a few directories with a dirset. The cost of course is that reading type="file" in the top line of a long chmod, nolonger guarantees that nothing below represents a directory, but only specifies how filesets will be handled. Not specifying type is the same as specifying type="file" so people who just want to use a dirset can just use it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
