There is a <different> selector which can help:
- patched files are different from their unpatched version
So copy all source files into a new directory and patch the files.
Then you can move the patched files (using the <different> selector
and comparing the tmp-directory and the original dir) into a new one.
Then delete the tmp-dir.
Compiling and JARing should be more easily. But you have to ensure
correct classpaths ...
Another possibility would be writing a new selector: parameterized with
a "compare-directory". Select a file, if a file with the same relative path
exists in the compare-directory:
<fileset dir="${src}">
<xSelector compdir="${comp}"/>
</fileset>
with files
${src}/org/apache/tools/ant/Ant.java
${src}/org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/Echo.java
${comp}/org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/Echo.java <--- same name, but patch
file
the Echo.java would be selected.
You can do some name mapping, too (it�s your own selector :-):
*.patch-->*.java
