Hi Max,
>From what I've seen, Ant requires the file name in <include ..> to be
relative to srcdir, not an absolute path. Hence you need to convert the
value of "buffer" to be relative to srcdir.
Hopefully a jde-ant user has already done this (or worked out how to get Ant
to use absolute paths) and can provide the solution here.
Regards,
Ross
