Thanks,
here is patch again, this time it is agains 0.85 RC3. I'd really love to see
this incorporated in core. There are some implementation problems which we
already discussed, though:
- what should happen, if referenced fileset have another basedir ?
- what should happen, if exclude/include of 2 filesets conflicts ?
- is every possible combination of those covered in test cases?
For mine use, I dont combine basedirs and dont use excludes at all, but
those problems should be solved. I feel, this is main problem why this
extension wasnt incorporated yet. Maybe we could discuss it now...
I'm tempted to include it and let people have a play with it and then
refine it as necessary rather than holding out until its perfect. What
do people think ?

Assuming that your syntax has not varied too greatly from the
version I saw in the newsgroup, I agree entirely that this is
the right way to go.
No task supports more that one fileset but allowing a fileset
to contain or be created based on other filesets allows for
many combinations
I assume that this allows the derivative fileset types like
zipfileset to inherit a similar behaviour
I believe that this would make a great enhancement to the
core nant system.
How would we proceed from here
Can I get a copy of this patch?
How would I use it?
Should I wait for the community to approve the patch?(really
don't want to do this)
Ideas? Suggestions ?
Rory
BTW
Well done martin for this Idea / Implementation. Very
simple and very powerful.

Hello Rory,
Currently, I fear, there is no such feature in NAnt. Some
tasks allow
to specify multiple filesets, but only some...
That syntax you "stole" from another post was mine proposal
to extend
current fileset task. I have it locally and it works for
me. I use it
in production, in fact. I already sent patch for this and
could send
more current one, if community have interest for it. I'd
like to see
that incorporated in NAnt's core.
btw: it also allow adding to existing fileset - and its
what I need in
production.

To: nantList <nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net>
I would like to alter fileset so that it could reference multiple
other filesets but I am not sure where to start.
The syntax has been stolen from a post I read
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
net/msg03232.html
and is as follows
<fileset id="Group1">
<include name="File1.dll" />
<include name="File2.dll" />
</fileset>
<fileset id="Group2">
<include name="File3.dll" />
<include name="File4.dll" />
</fileset>
<fileset>
<includeFileset refid="Group1" />
<includeFileset refid="Group2" /> </fileset>
I have found the fileset Class in Nant.Core and I figured
I needed
to determine how to use the refid syntax.
So I looked for another class that already does this.
The CopyTask seems to provide this but I cannot find
anything in the
source to indicate how this is handled.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Rory
