That won't work as a shell expands the asterisk....

Your usage of the find command is incorrect. To find all the jars in
./myDir you would run the following:
Find ./myDir -name *.jar
You should change the arg line to:
<arg line="$basedir}/myDir -name *.jar"/>

Subject: Unix commads behaving different in Ant task
Hi,
I have a situation where in I need to find all the .jar files
in a directory and write it to a temp file.
The command from the prompt is : find myDir/*.jar and it
lists all the .jar files from myDir directory.
The ant target defined for the purpose is:
<target name="list.jars">
<exec os="unix" executable="find"
outputproperty="temp.txt">
<arg line="$basedir}/myDir/*.jar"/>
</exec>
</target>
This does not return any thing.
What I am doing wrong?
Thanks
Venkat Kotu
