[Nant-users] Getting The Creation Date For Each File In A Filegroup

[Gregory A. Lusk]

I was wondering if someone might be able to give me a few pointers on how to get the creation date for each file in a filegroup.  I've tried the following script snippet, but I can't seem to get it to work.

 

<target name="getfiledates">

    <foreach item="File" property="filename">
       <in>

        <items>
         <include name="${build.dir}/logs/*.xml" />
        </items>
       </in>
       <do>

        <echo message="${file::get-creation-time('${filename}')}" />
       </do>

    </foreach> 

</target>

 

Apparently, my use of the get-creation-time function and reference to the ${filename} variable are illegal in the same call.  NAnt seems to think that ${filename} is part of the path and reports that it cannot find part of the path.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Greg
