Re: up-to-date-ness and cmd-line args

[michael sorens]

I had an open question on this issue several days ago for which no one has 
taken up the gauntlet.
To make it very brief, I want to use a set of files in two places: inside an 
<uptodate> checker,
and as <arg>s to a <java> task. The build file fragment shown here works for the 
<uptodate> check, but the js.plain.files property comes out empty. Why?

    <target name="reference-test2">
                <fileset dir="." id="plain.files">
                        <include name="${jslib}/Util/Version.js"/>
                        <include name="${jsmenu}/ccmenu.js"/>
                        <include name="${jslib}/Util/NavKeys.js"/>
                </fileset>
                <uptodate property="notRequired" targetfile="${menuArchive}">
                        <srcfiles refid="plain.files"/>
                </uptodate>
                <pathconvert property="js.plain.files" pathsep=" " 
refid="plain.files"/>
                <echo>
                        arg list ${js.plain.files}
                </echo>
    </target>
