I don't want to expand the *... So my question is: how escape * in ANT to avoid the expansion?

The shell was doing the expansion of the '*'. The <apply> task should work for you (you just need to start Java yourself, which is easy thanks to java.home), or you expand the '*' before using a <fileset> converted to a property using <pathconvert>. Sounds like <apply> would be the better solution to me. --DD -----Original Message----- From: Aubin Mahé [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 13, 2002 7:45 AM To: 'Ant Users List' Subject: How escaping '*' ? I wish to run a jar with this target: <target ... > <java ... fork = "true" > <arg line = "-l MainTrace -o 1 -select *" /> </java> </target> The '*' after 'select' will be expanded and replaced by the files in the current directory. Before, I used 'make': go: $(JAR_TARGET) $JAVA) -jar $(JAR_TARGET) -l MainTrace -o 1 -select '*' Info: <arg value="*" /> give the same result.
