Hello,
I want to copy a big number of files located on a remote server.
To avoid scanning the remote directory, I use a locally generated list
of absolute file names in a file called fileList.txt.
So my fileList.txt contains something like:
\\machine\share\dir1\dir2\file1.ext
\\machine\share\dir1\dir2\file with spaces.ext
\\machine\share\dir1\dir2\an other one.ext
\\machine\share\dir1\file3.ext
Now I want to copy some content of \\machine\share\dir1\dir2 in a
target folder (eg file*.ext).
I first thought of using filelist, but I get into problems with spaces
in file names.
<loadfile property="file.list" srcfile="fileList.txt">
<filterchain>
<!-- matching and removing prefix \\machine\share\dir1\dir2 -->
.....
</filterchain>
</loadfile>
<copy todir="target">
<restrict>
<filelist dir="\\machine\share\dir1\dir2" files="${file.list}"
/>
<and>
<or>
<name name="${include.pattern.1}" />
<name name="${include.pattern.2}" />
</or>
<not>
<or>
<name name="${exclude.pattern.1}" />
<name name="${exclude.pattern.2}" />
</or>
</not>
</and>
</restrict>
</copy>
Then I tried to use the <files> resource collection with its
includesfile attribute, but I don't see how to specify the equivalent
of the <filelist> dir attribute. I even tried something with
<mappedresources>, without chance (nothing gets copied):
<copy todir="target">
<restrict>
<mappedresources>
<files includesfile="fileList.txt" />
<globmapper from="\\machine\share\dir1\dir2\*" to="*"
handledirsep="true" />
</mappedresources>
<and>
<or>
<name name="${include.pattern.1}" />
<name name="${include.pattern.2}" />
</or>
<not>
<or>
<name name="${exclude.pattern.1}" />
<name name="${exclude.pattern.2}" />
</or>
</not>
</and>
</restrict>
</copy>
would anyone have an idea?
Thanks,
Patrick
