I have a list of source files that must be supplied to javac as well
as several other tasks. It's a complex list with excludes, so I want
to factor it out as a path reference to avoid future copy-and-paste
bugs. But this doesn't seem to be possible!
My path reference is defined like this:
<path id="src.files">
<fileset dir="src">
<include name="**/*.java"/>
<exclude name="some/directory/FileName1.java"/>
<exclude name="some/directory/FileName2.java"/>
...
</fileset>
</path>
But when I call javac:
<javac
sourcepathref="src.files"
...
I get an error saying I didn't specify the srcdir attribute.
Okay, so I set srcdir to the same directory as my path reference, but
then my excluded files don't get excluded! It seems the srcdir
attribute overrides whatever is in the sourcepathref attribute.
Is that a bug? Or am I doing something wrong? Thanks,
Trevor
P.S. I'm using Ant 1.7.0.
