filelist dir attribute

[Adam Hardy]

Thanks for the help on the build.properties question. Now I've got a bit further, I've come across another problem. I've seen quite a few posts in the archives mentioning this problem, and I am trying to find a work-around.

I want make it possible to define the location of my external jars in one place for all and any projects. I was trying to set up two build.property files:

1) for the local system, specifying a range of external jar files for potential inclusion and their locations

2) for project properties, including a property that is a list of required external jars, e.g. ${struts.jar},${jaxb.jar},${mysql.jar}, in a comma seperated list, using the properties defined in the system jar.

The plan was then to turn the list of jars into a filelist property and use it in my classpath and for my deploy target.

However filelist has a dir attribute for a common root which is mandatory - on Unix I can ignore this by using / but under windows it is impossible due to the drive letters.

Is there a work-around for this I could use? Can I somehow get rid of the slash that filelist puts before the drive letter?

Thanks
Adam
