The following code uses <for> and <if> target from ant-contrib to list empty dirs under project.dir: <for param="dir" > <dirset dir="${project.dir}" /> <sequential> <pathconvert property="@{dir}.list" setonempty="no" > <path> <fileset dir="@{dir}" defaultexcludes="yes" /> </path> </pathconvert> <if><not><isset property="@{dir}.list" /></not> <then> <echo message="@{dir} is empty" /> </then> </if> </sequential> </for> I set defaultexcludes to yes in the fileset spec to list empty dirs and dirs containing only trash files.
