Re: How to add multiple filesets at once (to a jar target) ?

2004-10-16 Thread Kris Read
I am sure you can do it. However, in our own build file we find its convenient to just copy all of the files we want in our final JAR file into a single directory, then jar the contents of that directory. In our case there are also other reasons to have the files copied to a new directory, but i
