You can use <uptodate> to select the newer files.
Or Ant-Contrib's <outofdate>, which I find more convenient, since avoids having multiple targets, but it adds a dependency. --DD On 7/19/07, Wayne Cannon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I would like to do the equivalent of a "find -newer reference_file ... | zip ... ", i.e., archiving all files newer than a reference_file. I would like to archive only the files that have changed since the last major archive into a smaller, faster, "delta" archive; much like an incremental backup works. The <date> selector in a <fileset> looks like the logical solution, but it appears to only use a date-time string and not a reference file to specify the date. Is there a way to use the date-time of a reference file, instead of a string, for the <date> selector? Is there a way to set a property with the date-time of a reference file so that the property can be passed to a <date> selector? Is there another way to accomplish my goal, such as a way to use <depend> with a single reference file? --Wayne --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
