Summary: file::exists() fails
Initial Comment:
Hi,
I am using svn 1.4.2 setup.
file::exists() function is not working properly.
It always returns false irrespective of existence of file.
Can someone pls verify it??
Thanks,
Tushar

It appear you are using file::exists() incorrectly. You have
<if test="${file::exists('${filepath}')}">
where it should be
<if test="${file::exists(filepath)}">
Since filepath is a property and is already inside a ${}, just use the
name directly without quotes.

There's no buglet here (except for perhaps a lack of documentation).
In functions, properties should not be enclosed in '${...}' if you want to
use their expanded value.
Use this:
<if test="${file::exists(filepath)}">
...
</if>
instead of:
<if test="${file::exists('${filepath}')}">
...
</if>

I have found also this problem
file::exists() function is not working properly.
It always returns false irrespective of existence of file.
Is it verified by someone?
thanks,
Raffaele.

I'm using file::exists alot in my production scripts and never had a
problem with it. We are using svn 1.4.3 btw - but don't think it could
somehow influence the file:exists function.

Hi,
Thanx for reply.
Here is code I am using:
<target name="build">
<property name="filepath" value="c:\mallow.exe"/>
<echo message="${filepath}"/>
<if test="${file::exists('${filepath}')}">
<echo message="File Exists"/>
</if>
<if test="${not file::exists('${filepath}')}">
<echo message="File does not Exist"/>
</if>
</target>
In any case it prints, "File does not Exist".
Version of NAnt.Core.dll present is 0.85.2478.0
I am not able to figure out what is wrong.
Thanx,
Tushar
