Hm, still doesn't work:
(For simplicity, just deleting files in
the current working directory,
the one where build.xml lives in:)
One step backwards:
If a have a file exmpl~ in that current working directory
<delete file="exmpl~" defaultexcludes="no"/>
and
<delete file="exmpl~"/>
both work fine (deleting the one file)
However
(after recreating the file exmpl~)
neither one of those does the job:
<delete file="*~" defaultexcludes="no"/>
<delete file="./*~" defaultexcludes="no"/>
<delete file="**/*~" defaultexcludes="no"/>
Sorry. Any more advice?. Thanks.
Andreas

I believe the delete task uses the 'default excludes' which includes things
like emacs and vi backup files.
What you need to do is:
<delete file="**/*~" defaultexcludes="no"/>

Subject: rm -f *~
Hi,
Can anyone tell me, how to delete tilde-(emacs)-backup-files in a clean
target?
trying all kinds aof patterns didn't work so far:
<delete file="**/*~"/>
<delete file="**/*.*~"/>
etc.
the equivalent (Gnu-)Makefile commands are:
clean:
rm -f *~
(I am new to this mailing list, and I haven't found an ant-users list)
Thanks in advance.
Andreas
