I'm lacking a <filesetgroup> element that would enable a referencing a group of <filesets>. I'm currently faced with the challenge of passing multiple filesets from a Java program to an ant-script as a source for a jar task. I can't find a good way to do that. Essentially, this is what I'd like to do:

(the correspondance of this would take place in Java code)

<filesetgroup id="src"/>
  <fileset dir="src1"/>
  <fileset dir="src2"/>
</filesetgroup>

(and then this would happen in the ant buildscript)

<jar jarfile="some.jar">
  <filesetgroup refid="src"/>
</jar>

Several other tasks are subject to the same problem (javac, copy, etc.). I found a message from September 2002 in the archives that expresses the same concern: http://www.mail-archive.com/ant-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg20345.html.

Are there any plans to implement this?

Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
