Tim,
I may be off base here, but I think you can use a
<foreach> task to iterate through items in a fileset -
e.g.
<foreach item="File"
property="filename">
<in>
<items>
<include name="SomeFolder/**" />
</items>
</in>
<do>
<!-- whatever processing is needed if it is the right file -->
<in>
<items>
<include name="SomeFolder/**" />
</items>
</in>
<do>
<!-- whatever processing is needed if it is the right file -->
</do>
</foreach>
</foreach>
One question though... For most of the tools I have worked
with there is frequently a way you can specify the name of the output (via redirection, if nothing
else). Are you sure you can't do the same thing? If that is possible in your
case too it would probably make life *much* easier!
Regards,
Richard

Subject: [NAnt-users] Simply find file task or function
Hello,
This may be a very
simple question, but I can not seem to find a function that can do this. I
am automating the build of our product install and during the creation of the
install it will generate a .txt file that contains the build log. I would
like to open this log file up to check for errors, but I do not know the exact
name of the file to open for read in. The install will create the txt file
in the following format:
9-18-2006 10-49-59
AM.txt
I need to be able to
get the exact name so I figured that if I did a file find in the folder that
these files are created then I can get the list of files and work from
that. But I do not see any task that will give me the name of the files in
a specified directory.
Since the file name
contains the time it also makes it harder to find because I could generate the
same name, but if the second's tick is just one ahead of mine then it will not
find the file.
I just want
something simple to get me the name of the file and then I can perform a copy of
the file to a more generic name and then work with it from
there.
So if there are any
NAnt command/tasks that can get me this information I would appreciate knowing
about it. Or any other method that would be easy to call from the NAnt
project to get me the same results that would be good as
well.
Thanks,
