<path/> elements can be nested, and so can be aggregated in the way you describe. I'd suggest steering clear of handling filesets directly, instead always wrap them in a <path/>.
Unfortunately far too many 3d party tasks do use them directly - which is a pain :( ----- Original Message ----- From: Darryl Miles To: Ant Users List Sent: Friday, January 04, 2008 12:06 PM Subject: Aggregation of <fileset> or <path> ? The concept is a "fileset" or "path" is great, but I have to label each one, I can't aggregate them for 2 or more. <path> <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique"/> </path> I want the above "fileset" to actually be 2 or more filesets as if I had written them out like: <path> <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.one"/> <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.two"/> </path> But be labeled as a single label "my.fileset.unique". Maybe a <filesetgroup> is needed: <filesetgroup id="my.filesetgroup.foobar"> <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.one"/> <fileset refid="my.fileset.unique.two"/> </filesetgroup> Where <filesetgroup refid="my.filesetgroup.foobar"/> could be used in _ANY_ place that a regular <fileset/> could be.
