Have you looked at the symlink task?

I am using this target definition to remove all the files under ${TOP} which contains some symlinks to other directories: <target name="clean"> <delete includeEmptyDirs="true" failonerror="false"> <fileset dir="${TOP}" followsymlinks="false"/> </delete> </target> However, I've noticed that delete is not deleting the symlinks. I'd like to get the same results as /bin/rm -rf under Unix, i.e. the symlinks are deleted but not followed. Is there a way to do that with the delete task? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Making-the-delete-task-behave-like--bin-rm--rf-vis-a-vis-symlinks-to-directories-tp24154698p24154698.html Sent from the Ant - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@ant.apache.org
