Would it be possible (i would even be willing to write the code) to extend the echo task so that it could take a fileset argument? And it would either echo the fileset to the standard output area, or to the file specified in the command?
ie. <fileset id="myFs" dir="src" includes="**/*.java" /> <echo file="fileList.txt"> <fileset refid="myFs" /> </echo> Reason i ask is that right now, we are using the exec command and specifying an output file for a "cmd.exe /c dir /s /b *.java" command to get the filelist. I'd rather do it in a more os independent manner. Once we have the file, we're passing the filename to the <ajc> (aspect java compiler) for processing. It uses the contents of this file to actually build the project (it needs all java file names to completely aspect and produce appropriate class files). http://www.aspectj.org for more info on aspectj
