Should not you use:
<mkdir dir="${dest}/internal"/>
<copy todir="${dest}/internal" flatten="true">
<fileset dir="${source}" includes="**/ant.jar"/>
</copy>
?

Thanks for the info. Note that the documentation for the file mappers states that "to" and "from"
can "contain at most one '*'", which implies to me that they can legitimately have zero stars. In this
particular case the fileset defined selects just one file, ant.jar, which is what I want to copy to a different
directory. The problem is that I don't know (in the Ant script) the exact path to the ant.jar so I'm using
"**/ant.jar":
<copy todir="${dest}">
<fileset dir="${source}" includes="**/ant.jar"/>
<mapper type="glob" from="*/ant.jar" to="internal/ant.jar"/>
</copy>
What I want to do is copy the one and only "${source}/.../ant.jar" to "${dest}/internal/ant.jar". Because the
Ant script is itself generated (generically) such that the copy "todir" attribute is fixed as "${dest}" I
can't simply set that to "${dest}/internal" and use a flatten mapper which is what I'd otherwise do.
If you can think of a way of doing this processing with just changing the body
content of the copy element and not the copy element itself I'd love to know
the solution! Perhaps the regexp mapper would do this?
