\n<fileset dir=”${src}”

\n<\/copy><\/p>\n
This copies all files in directories called images that are located in the directory tree defined by ${src} to the destination directory defined by ${dist}, but excludes all *.gif files from the copy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<copy todir=”${dist}”>
\n<fileset dir=”${src}”>

\n<exclude name=”**\/*.gif”\/>

\n<\/copy><\/p>\n
The same as the example above, but expressed using nested elements.<\/strong><\/p>\n<delete dir=”${dist}”>
\n<include name=”**\/images\/*”\/>
\n<exclude name=”**\/*.gif”\/>
\n<\/delete><\/p>\n
Deleting the original set of files, the delete task can act as an implicit fileset.<\/strong><\/p>\nFlatten directories when performing an Ant copy<\/strong>
\nHere’s a code snippet from an Ant build script where I begin with a hierarchical structure of jar files in my development environment, then flatten out all my lib subdirectories into one directory in my production environment when I copy all the jar files to my production library directory:<\/p>\n<!– build a temporary lib dir, and flatten out the jars into one folder –><\/p>\n
<copy todir=”${temp.dir.lib}” flatten=”true”>
\n<fileset dir=”${lib.dir}”>
\n<exclude name=”${cob.lib.dir}” \/>
\n<exclude name=”junit*” \/>
\n<include name=”**\/*.jar”\/>
\n<include name=”**\/*.zip”\/>
