That is really strange. It starts to work on my machine, _but_
as one file was still copied (a PERL script), I choose to use
'includes="**/*.java"'
rather than 'excludes="**/*.html"'. The PERL script is still copied, but the
HTML not !
I'm going slighty mad with this.
Is there a cache or anything like this between ant runs ? This question seems
stupid, I know, but it seems to act like the
build.xml was cached and not reload when ant starts up...
May be the problem comes from where the file is stored (ant runs on an NT box,
but all the files (build.xml+java source files,
etc.) are on a Samba/Linux server.
I never encountered a problem of bad file caching before, so that sounds
strange.

In fact, for a tree dir like this:
src/
a/
b/
c/
d/
e/
f/
h/
i/
j/
tmp/
Where .java, package.html, and .pl files are in the src/ subtree, and where
tmp/ is the destination dir (for .class)
I uses two targets (one for b/ subtree, one for f/ subtree), with all the
_same_ javac parameters, but the .jar(s) in the
classpath tag.
Whenever 'bad copying' occurs, it only occurs for the second target, let's say
'f'. In this case, all the package.html files are
copied into tmp, like this:
src/
...
tmp/
a/
b/
c/*.class
d/*.class
e/*.class
f/
h/*.class
i/*.class
j/*.class
h/package.html
i/package.html
j/package.html
Even if package.html is copied, I think that it should be copied into the
source matching subtree, for example for source file
src/a/f/h/package.html I would expect that the file is copied into
tmp/a/f/h/package.html, -not- into tmp/h/package.html ...

No 8') But I think this is a good idea.
Thanks for your help.
