Hello Gary,
This is what it does. Suppose you have a network share \\test1\share1 which contains some zip files in the following format:
zip1-date1-time1.ok.dll.zip
zip2-date2-time2.ok.dll.zip
and so on.
In case of some setups builds, the binaries are zippd and stored in this location. When we trigger a setup (MSI) build, we need to pick up the latest zip file and extract it to some location. My custom task sorts the share1 folder for the latest contents (zip file) and returns the latest zip file. Also, you can specify the search pattern like you want to sort only for files that have a
OK.dll.zip tag and not witherrors.dll.zip, you can specify that in the pattern attribute of the task and it would only search for those files. Same is with the sort dir task, wherein you can sort for the latest directories from a set of directories. Also, exception handling logic has been introduced into the code so in case of errors, the location and detailed error description is provided.
Please let me know if you need more clarification on this.
Thanks and Regards,
Niranjan

As already indicated, you should submit this to nantcontrib.
However, first you should clarify what it does. Does it produce a
sorted listing of a fileset? Or is sort the wrong word, and you really
meant search?
