Benjamin Thanks for the response. I changed the path filter to /**/adt_dispatcher/**/*.*
and it now works - thank you. But, I'm still a little confused why the original filter didn't work, with a single "." at the end. The documentation states this will match "any file name and extension", which should be identical to "*.*" as well as a single star, "*". In theory, any of these three should do the same thing Is the documentation wrong? http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CCNET/PathFilter thanks Michael On Aug 7, 1:32 pm, Benjamin Baumann <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > I'm not an expert in regular expression but I think your expression match > whatever file in a directory named adt_dispatcher which has a name of one > caracter (the "."). > > I would try > /**/adt_dispatcher > or > /**/adt_dispatcher/**/*.* > > With kind regards, > Benjamin Baumann > > 2010/8/6 Michael <[email protected]> > > > Hi > > I'm using a mixed multi and filtered source control block but my > > exclusionfilter pathfilter doesn't seem to be doing the job correctly, > > as the build still gets triggered on this directory > > > My path filter looks like this: > > <exclusionFilters> > > <pathFilter> > > <pattern>/**/adt_dispatcher/.</pattern> > > </pathFilter> > > </exclusionFilters> > > > And the following svn modification is triggering the build > > /GatewayDevelopment/trunk/adt_dispatcher/src/dispatcher.h > > > Shouldn't this pathfilter match this file path and not trigger the > > build? > > > Any ideas what I'm missing? > > > thanks > > Michael
