And while we're at refactoring, what do you think of having separate regexps for directories and files ? This would be really useful since their respective naming rules are totally different. E.g. if I want only .xml files, the regexp has to be "^[^.]*$|\.xml$", which looks quite ugly when the file regexp would simply be "\.xml$".
How do you plan to express that in the component configuration? I'm afraid it might start being overcomplicated...
Simple : instead of the "includes" and "excludes" parameters, we would have "file-includes", "file-excludes", "dir-includes" and "dir-excludes".
As decoupling files and dirs will drastically simplify the expressions, I like Joerg's proposal of using Ant-like wildcards, which would make them even more simpler.
Thoughts ?
