I am trying to create sym links in 1 directory for each file in another
directory. I got this example from a previous posting, but so far am
unable to make it work for me.
The code is below - the problem I am having is that the sym link is
being created in whatever directory I am in when I run the ant command
rather than the directory that I have specified in the destdir argument
(foo).
<project name="test" default="testfoo">
<target name="testfoo">
<fileset dir="bar" id="commonRefId">
<include name="*" />
</fileset>
<symlinkFileset fsRefid="commonRefId" destdir="foo" />
</target>
<macrodef name="symlinkFileset">
<attribute name="fsRefid" />
<attribute name="destdir" />
<sequential>
<echo message="@{destdir}"/>
<apply executable="ln" dir="@{destdir}"
verbose="true" parallel="false">
<arg value="-s" />
<arg value="-f" />
<arg value="-v" />
<fileset refid="@{fsRefid}" />
</apply>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
</project>
Here's the output of the run
