I did a few tests and it appears that the following is finding only bin
and obj folders.
<delete>
<fileset basedir="${folder}">
<include name="**\bin" />
<include name="**\obj" />
</fileset>
</delete>
Unfortunately, NAnt doesn't delete the folders. I suspect that this is
because the folders are not empty. The help suggests that I can specify
a folder to be deleted with all of its sub-folders. This obviously is
not true when using a fileset. I haven't tested this using the 'dir'
attribute.
For now, I'm using the following which works for me:
<delete>
<fileset basedir="${folder}">
<include name="**\bin\**" />
<include name="**\obj\**" />
</fileset>
</delete>
The folders are left behind, but the content goes away and that is my
primary goal.
