have you tried the built in <cvschangelog> + the xslt in style="${ant.home}/etc/changelog.xsl" or style="${ant.home}/etc/changelog-text.xsl"
it needs a starting tag or branch and will report all files changed since tag/branch was created <cvschangelog dir="${basedir}" destfile="${cvs.report}${file.separator}changelog.xml" tag="${cvs.branch}" /> <xslt in="${cvs.report}${file.separator}changelog.xml" out="${cvs.report}${file.separator}changelog.html" style="${ant.home}/etc/changelog.xsl"> <param name="title" expression="Branch: ${cvs.branch}: ${ant.project.name} ChangeLog"/> <param name="module" expression="${ant.project.name}"/> <param name="cvsweb" expression="#"/> </xslt> -----Original Message----- From: Antoine Levy-Lambert [mailto:anto...@gmx.de] Sent: Friday, December 31, 2010 10:50 AM To: Ant Users List Subject: Re: fileset of cvs changed files Hello Mark, what you can do is run your cvs update using the exec task and use a nested filterchain do capture output lines with a "U" [1] and apply a regular expression to keep only the path of the file, then save this output into a file. The output file should contain a series of file relative paths in order to be used as input for the includesfile attribute of a patternset. Something like that (untested) : <exec executable="cvs" failonerror="true" dir="somerootdir"> <arg value="update"/> <redirector output="includelist.txt"> <outputfilterchain> <tokenfilter> <containsregex pattern="^ U " replace=""/> </tokenfilter> </outputfilterchain> </redirector> </exec> <fileset dir="somerootdir"> <patternset includesfile="includelist.txt"/> </fileset> Otherwise you can write your own ant task and make this task create either a patternset, a fileset, or a resource collection.
