Creating SymLinks with relative paths shouldn't be too hard for ant. However,
I can't figure out the right way to do it.
Using bash commands, I'd do
cd dir_b
ln -s ../../dir_a/*.xml .
yielding symbolic links within dir_b that look like ../../dir_a/file1.xml
etc.
What is the equivalent of this in ant? I have only managed to get absolute
paths with the code below (while the "relative" attribute will just link
file1.xml to file1.xml without any relative path) :
<apply executable="ln"
dir="dir_b">
<arg value="-sf"/>
<srcfile/>
<fileset dir="../../dir_a">
<include name="*.xml"/>
</fileset>
<arg value="."/>
<mapper type="identity"/>
</apply>
As I have fixed paths here, I considered putting the call to "ln" into a
single <exec>, but then how to change the working directory first?
