Hi, Sharing a tip, and making a feature request: Currently, it seems that filesets are not printable, but path-like structures are printable. However, path-like structures can be formed from filesets. Here's an example of how to print a fileset: <project name="TestProj" default="print" basedir="."> <path id="mypath"> <fileset id="a" dir="./xdocs" includes="*.xml"/> </path> <target name="print"> <property name="a.value" refid="mypath"/> <echo message="foo ${a.value}"/> </target> </project> And the feature request: could the hack be made unnecessary by making filesets referenceable through a refid directly? thanks, --Jeff
