Question

OK, I’m stumped.

I have a Java tree that looks like a fairly typical Eclipse Java build:

myproject   src     com       example         test           // Java files in com.example.test here   bin     com       example         test           // Compiled class files will go here 

Now I have a MyClass.properties file in myproject/src/com/example/test along with the source Java files. How can I write an appropriate ant task to copy all the changed .properties files in the source tree, to their corresponding places in the build (myproject/bin) tree?

(The easier half of this is to do the actual copy; the harder half of this I’m guessing is checking for dependencies)

How about:

<copy todir='myproject/bin'>    <fileset dir='myproject/src' includes='**/*.properties'/> </copy>
