Just define a <fileset> with a <present> selector. To check whether this selected any files, Then <pathconvert> the fileset to a string property, and check with <condition>/<equals> whether the string is empty or not. --DD
-----Original Message----- From: Dan Gardner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 11:58 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: multiple file check I would like to compare two directories and see if any files in directory_A exist in directory_B. Is this possible ? One way would be to use an exec task to run an OS script: Something along the lines of "ls -R1 > filelist.txt" against directory_A and then use this list for a find command against directory_B. But does ANT have a task I'm unaware of ? _______________________________ Dan Gardner Emap IT - UK --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
