I seem to not have been clear enough previously. I need this deletion to be
automatic when the target is run based on the fact that file2.txt no longer
exists in c:/otherdir. That means, if somebody comes along and deletes a
file from c:/otherdir, I want the same files to be deleted in c:/localdir
when I rerun my make target.
Sorry for the confusion.

Mark,
Check out the delete task in the user manual. I believe the following is
what you want:
<delete file="c:/localdir/file2.txt"/>.

All,
I want to delete files from a local directory that no longer exist in a
previously mirrored directory. e.g.
c:/localdir
file1.txt
file2.txt
file3.txt
c:/otherdir
file1.txt
file3.txt
In this case, I would want to delete file2.txt from c:/localdir. Does
anyone know if this is possible in Ant.
Thanks
Mark
