In 1.6 you could use the ${toString:} psuedo-property:
 <target name="present">
   <fileset id="fileset.notpresent" dir="."
            includes="*.notpresent"/>
   <condition property="no.files.present">
     <equals arg1="" arg2="${toString:fileset.notpresent}"/>
   </condition>
   <echo>no.files.present=${no.files.present}</echo>
   <fileset id="fileset.present" dir="."
            includes="*.xml"/>
   <condition property="no.files.present_2">
     <equals arg1="" arg2="${toString:fileset.present}"/>
   </condition>
   <echo>no.files.present_2=${no.files.present_2}</echo>
 </target>

2) <concat> shouldn't do anything if there are no
existing files.
 

No, this is not true in this case. The <header> and <footer> elements 
are independent
of the fileset.

Hello,



I have to concat some files from a fileset together
into another file. I use
the following fileset for this:

<concat
destfile="${build.webservices.dir}/config.xml">

<header>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;

&lt;configuration

   

xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jax-rpc/ri/config"&gt;
 

</header>

                 <fileset
refid="module-webservices-config-fileset" />

                 <footer>&lt;/configuration&gt;
</footer>

           </concat>



However, this only should hebben if the number of
files in fileset
module-webservices-config-fileset > 0.



Is there a way, to fetch the number of files in a
fileset (may be with
ant-contrib, or another 3rd-party addon)?



Thanks in advance.
