Not quite, as you don't really specify a pattern in SQL, it would rather be Select * from src/java where filename matches '*/*.java' and readable == true Matching a pattern is just another condition for the where clause. Your approach would be the easiest to integrate with the way filesets work right now, but we should at least think about extending it a bit further so that name="..." is just a condition as well.
