Who creates this dir? Who knows the name? The best way is to pass the information on to your antfile.

I know only a part of name of that directory, it looks like this "tmp*abc": tmp24235abc tmp76957abc tmp556abc tmp6344abc I need to copy files to a directory which has latest creation date. I guess it would be possible with <sort> and <first> elements but I have no idea how to use it? This example <copy todir="dest" flatten="true"> <first count="2"> <sort> <date xmlns="antlib:org.apache.tools.ant.types.resources.comparators"/> <resources> <file file="src_dir/file1.txt"/> <file file="src_dir/file2.txt"/> <file file="src_dir/file3.txt"/> <url url="http://ant.apache.org/index.html"/> </resources> </sort> </first> </copy> finds latest file and copies it to the destination, but I want the oposite. I need to determine correct destination. Could anybody give me a hint how to use <first>, please.
