[NAnt-users] FW: Filesets - include / exclude

[Parrish, Ken]

Interesting idea.  Multiple <patternset> elements can be referenced in a 
<fileset>, however, all the referenced <include> and <exclude> directives 
behave as though it were a single <fileset>.  The following has the same effect 
as if all three <include> and <exclude> directives were specified in the same 
<fileset>:


        <patternset id="patternSet1">
                <include name="**" />
                <exclude name="*.txt" />
        </patternset>

        <patternset id="patternSet2">
                <include name="File1.txt" />
        </patternset>

        <target name="PatternSetTest">

                <copy todir="${dstDir}" verbose="true" >
                        <fileset basedir="${srcDir}">
                                <patternset refid="patternSet1" />
                                <patternset refid="patternSet2" />
                        </fileset>
                </copy>

        </target>

Thanks for the info Ken. That is how I do it too. I just use multiple copy 
tasks. It always seemed to me that they copy task should support multiple 
fileset sections but it doesn't. Have you perhaps tried using multiple 
paternsets? Sort of like:

<paternset refid="allfileswotext">
   <include name="**" />
   <exclude name="*.txt" />
</paternset>
