ant <fileset> under <apply executable> re-sorts files, destroying dependencies.

           Summary: ant <fileset> under <apply executable> re-sorts files,
                    destroying dependencies.
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.1
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: ant-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: richard@dftltd.demon.co.uk


We are using ant to build our Vitria application. One of the requirements is to run a utility 
called "importidl". The files in a given directory need to be imported in a particular order. We 
created a flat file with the files in the required order and used it in fileset statement as shown in 
the extract below:

     <apply executable="${vitria_bin}/importidl"
           
dir="${idl_dir}">
        <arg value="-verbose -register"/>
        <fileset 
dir="${idl_dir}/${idl_modules}/connector/crm/"
         
includesfile="${idl_dir}/${idl_modules}/connector/crm/buildfiles"/>

For some 
reason, ant re-orders the files according to the last modified date, instead of taking the files in 
the order in which they appear in the file "buildfiles" (i.e. order is same as if specifying 
includes="*.idl"). The only workaround we have come up with is to <apply> each file 
independently, which is a major pain (both for setup and maintenance). Is there a standard way of 
establishing the dependencies?

Thanks.
