Peter - here's some information on an antlib that does HTTP POST.
Though it appears to only post a single file as well, so you'd still
need a wrapper iteration to achieve posting of an entire directory of
files.

yes, there is an antlib (not released, you need to build it yourself)
that does posts, including http forms posting.

Steve,
Know of any HTTP POST tasks that could take a directory .xml files
and post them to Solr? We do it with curl like this, with Solr's
post.sh:
FILES=$*
URL=http://localhost:8983/solr/update
for f in $FILES; do
echo Posting file $f to $URL
curl $URL --data-binary @$f -H 'Content-type:text/xml;
charset=utf-8'
echo
done
#send the commit command to make sure all the changes are flushed
and visible
curl $URL --data-binary '<commit/>'
But something more Ant-centric would be tasty.
Thanks,
Erik
