Hi John,
Try turning on the -verbose option...u will be
able to see what's happenning 'behind the scenes'...it
will tell u whether it is selecting a particular file
or not.....
Check the ant user manual for pattern set and file
sets ..the example given there should be sufficient to
handle your requirement....
i guess u can use **/*.java in the "include task" to
include sub-directories also.
