No available checks directories too. http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/available.html Sets a property if a resource is available at runtime. This resource can be a file, a directory, a class in the classpath, or a JVM system resource.

Hi, I've got a little problem. Here is the existing directory structure: drwxrwxr-x 5 symosyad edasql 96 Sep 9 13:14 DWH-PQ-HQ-0837 -rw-r----- 1 symosyad edasql 3760 Sep 9 13:14 DWH-PQ-HQ-0837_Lieferung.tar.gz drwxr-xr-x 3 symosyad edasql 96 Sep 9 13:12 archiv In one of the first steps in my build.xml I want to check if the file 'DWH-PQ-HQ-0837_Lieferung.tar.gz' and the directory 'DWH-PQ-HQ-0837' exist. If the exist I want to move them into 'archiv'. With the <available> task I can only check if files exists, isn't it? Here is the target from my build.xml: <target name="archiv" description="move last delivery into archiv ..."> <!-- copy recent packages to archiv --> <copy todir="${name.dir.archiv}"> <fileset dir="${name.dir.projekt}"> <include name="**"/> <exclude name="archiv"/> </fileset> </copy> <!-- clean directory ${name.dir.projekt} --> <dirset id="deldir" dir="${name.dir.projekt}"> <include name="*"/> <exclude name="archiv"/> </dirset> <delete> <fileset dir="${name.dir.projekt}"> <include name="*.gz"/> </fileset> </delete> <for delimiter=";" list="${toString:deldir}" param="name.dir"> <sequential> <delete dir="${name.dir.projekt}/@{name.dir}"/> </sequential> </for> </target> Thanks for your help!
