I tried this.. this is printing the *.txt file that exist in the current
folder
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties"/>
<for param="file">
<path>
<fileset dir="." includes="*.txt"/>
</path>
<sequential>
<echo> file list::: @{file} </echo>
</sequential>
</for>
Now i need to check if the file exist then perform the target.. Do i need
to use condition for this??
Thanks
