I'm not too sure I follow your backup thing going on, but if your ${src} and
${bkp} variable also contain ${basedir} as a suffix, the regex won't match.
Mappers are fed relative paths compared to your ${basedir} I think. Try
taking this info into account and that may solve your problem. --DD

Subject: uptodate question
Hi,
I want to do a few things if my backup dir content is older than my source
dir content.
I am trying to use the uptodate task, with no success, like this:
<target name="check" depends="init">
<uptodate property="srcs.changed">
<srcfiles dir="${basedir}" />
<mapper type="glob" from="${src}\*.java" to="${bkp}\*.java" />
</uptodate>
</target>
<target name="javadoc" depends="check" if="srcs.changed">
<delete dir="${doc}" />
<javadoc sourcepath="${src}" destdir="${doc}"
packagenames="com.company.*" />
</target>
I thought that maybe my concept of from and to attributes in the uptodate
task was wrong, but nothing happened when I exchanged their values.
I have several tasks that depend on the srcs.changed property being
correctly set.
All the properties above are properly defined and refer to directories below
${basedir}.
What am I missing???
