thanks - I was just about to suggest a version of apply that doesn't add the
srcfile per default to the arguments:
<< <apply executable="myDel.bat" dir="." relative="true"
dest="." parallel="false">
<targetfile/>
<fileset dir="." includes="*.m4"/>
<mapper type="regexp" from="^([^\.]+)\.m4$$" to="\1.en.html"/>
</apply>
the myDel.bat batch file just drops the second argument >>
Now trying it with your recommendation (and the example in
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16144.html).
<delete verbose="true">
<fileset dir="." includes="*.m4">
<depend targetdir=".">
<mapper type="regexp" from="^(.+)\.m4$$" to="*.en.html"/>
</depend>
</fileset>
</delete>
this unfortunately deletes the *.m4 instead of the *.html files, so I tried
(http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg18388.html):
<dependset>
<srcfileset dir="." includes="*.m4">
<mapper type="regexp" from="^([^\.]+)\.m4$$" to="\1.en.html"/>
</srcfileset>
<targetfileset dir="." includes="*.en.html"/>
</dependset>
build.xml:96: The <fileset> data type doesn't support the nested "mapper"
element.

elper.java:521)
...
Any idea how this would work?
Many thanks in advance!
