Hello,
I want to copy a set of files to a directory which is dynamically generated.
I know only a part of name of that directory, it looks like this "tmp*abc":
tmp24235abc
tmp76957abc
tmp556abc
tmp6344abc
I need to copy files to a directory which has latest creation date. I guess
it would be possible with <sort> and <first> elements but I have no idea how
to use it? This example
<copy todir="dest" flatten="true">
<first count="2">
<sort>
<date
xmlns="antlib:org.apache.tools.ant.types.resources.comparators"/>
<resources>
<file file="src_dir/file1.txt"/>
<file file="src_dir/file2.txt"/>
<file file="src_dir/file3.txt"/>
<url url="http://ant.apache.org/index.html"/>
</resources>
</sort>
</first>
</copy>
finds latest file and copies it to the destination, but I want the oposite.
I need to determine correct destination.
Could anybody give me a hint how to use <first>, please.
Thanks
