Ability to set a property for a value in a fileset

           Summary: Ability to set a property for a value in a fileset
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6.1beta1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Yesterday, I had the task of writing an ant build script to unzip a zip file in 
the form zipname-x.y.z.zip. 
That's fine because you can not care about the version number and just do this:

    <echo message="Unzipping Jetty Java Servlet Engine / HTTP Server"/>
    <unzip dest=".">
      <fileset dir=".">
        <include name="Jetty-*-all.zip"/>
      </fileset>
    </unzip>

However, after that, I need the name of the directory it created, as I need to 
put some files in there, 
then start up Jetty. Now, clearly a rule such as:

    <firstfilematch property="jettydir.tmp">
      <fileset dir=".">
        <include name="Jetty-*"/>
        <exclude name="Jetty-*-all.zip"/>
      </fileset>
    </firstfilematch>

will do the job. I've written the task (we use it internally), and will attach 
it to the bug report.
