All:
Ok, I've got an installation tree that contains some symbolic links. As part of a clean task, I would like to remove those symbolic links. The problem I'm having is that Ant appears to want to traverse these links not matter what so I end deleting not only the symbolic links but the file tree the links point to. For example:
<patternset id="docs" >
<include name="businessentity" />
</patternset>
<target name="clean-wl-jsps"
description="Creates an installation with the WebManager contents specified as links to the source tree" >
<delete quiet="true" verbose="true"
<fileset dir=${installtree} />
<patternset refid="docs" />
</fileset>
</target>
The behavior I want is to remove the symbolic link businessentity. Instead the above removes the businessentity and the entire tree it points to.
I also tried this:
<target name="clean-wl-jsps"
description="Creates an installation with the WebManager contents specified as links to the source tree" >
<delete quiet="true" verbose="true"
<fileset dir=${installtree} />
<exclude="WEB-INF" />
</fileset>
</target>
In this case, Ant find nothing.
This is with Ant 1.3 on a Solaris 2.7 system.
Thanks!
