http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17008 create new type Set of FileSets and ZipFileSets Summary: create new type Set of FileSets and ZipFileSets Product: Ant Version: 1.5.1 Platform: All OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Core AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] create a new type which would be a set of FileSet(s) and/or ZipFileSet(s) make this type be accepted as nested element in the packaging tasks (Zip, Jar, War, Ear) This enhancement maybe an extension of, or used with issue 17007. Issues as noted by Antoine Levy-Lambert on the Ant-Users mailing list to my post is: "--according to the source code ZipFileSet cannot be defined outside of the Zip class My understanding is that it does not make sense currently to define ZipFileSet outside of the Zip class, because ZipFileSet cannot be cloned properly (clone method is not implemented for ZipFileSet ) so a clone of a ZipFileSet would actually be a FileSet (????) not good "--there is no type available to store a set comprising of FileSet(s) or ZipFileSet(s)"
