I wish to exclude particular files from a nant (0.91) target and process the remainder.
Here's the code snippet, which shows I want to include all .js files but exclude foo.
foo is not being excluded. I've tried putting the exclude before the include but same result.
<foreach item="File" in="${built.web.directory}\Content\js" property="filename">
<in>
<items basedir="${built.web.directory}\Content\js">
<include name="/**/*.js" />
<exclude name="**/foo.1.2.js" />
</items>
</in>
<do>
<echo message="Compressing ${filename}" />
<exec
program="${packer.exe}"
commandline="-o ${built.web.directory}\Content\js\${path::get-file-name(filename)} -m jsmin ${filename}"
/>
</do>
</foreach>
You have specified the in attribute on foreach which is overriding the items element. Try changing:
<foreach item="File" in="${built.web.directory}\Content\js" property="filename">
to:
<foreach item="File" property="filename">
