I don't see where this fixes the delete problem.
For example, the following is repeated executions of my clean target
(Note: this was run about five times before this)
D:\JavaDevelop\project>ant clean
Buildfile: build.xml
clean:
[delete] Deleted 2 directories from D:\JavaDevelop\project\package
[delete] Deleted 6 directories from D:\JavaDevelop\project\lib\codebase
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second
D:\JavaDevelop\project>ant clean
Buildfile: build.xml
clean:
[delete] Deleted 1 directory from D:\JavaDevelop\project\package
[delete] Deleted 6 directories from D:\JavaDevelop\project\lib\codebase
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second
D:\JavaDevelop\project>ant clean
Buildfile: build.xml
clean:
[delete] Deleted 4 directories from D:\JavaDevelop\project\lib\codebase
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second
D:\JavaDevelop\project>ant clean
Buildfile: build.xml
clean:
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second
