http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29471 delete task + attributes fail to delete dir with defaultexcludes on Summary: delete task + attributes fail to delete dir with defaultexcludes on Product: Ant Version: 1.6.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I wanted to delete a build dir including CVS files and directories. I tried to use the delete task this way: <delete includeEmptyDirs="true" defaultexcludes="false"> <fileset dir="build"/> </delete> I get a DEPRECATED message but my build dir was still here with all its CVS files (others "ordinary" files were deleted) Workaround: I use (more simply) the delete task this way: <delete dir="build"/> and it works fine (my CVS files are deleted). You can also use: <delete dir="build" includeEmptyDirs="true" defaultexcludes="false"/> works fine too. Since it's a DEPRECATED way of using <delete> that causes the problem , it is not really a bug, that's why I assign Severity: Minor --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
