I am wondering why a file referred to by a "includesfile" attribute won't allow specifying patterns with embedded property references... While I can say in an include tag: It won't work to have the same thing in an includesfile, even though the doc says that each line of an includesfile file is interpreted as an include pattern. So, it seems to me that if I have an includesfile with the following line: ${buildDir}/test.java It should work the same as if I had specified the above include = statement. The property 'buildDir' should be evaluated at the time the includesfile is referenced as part of a patternset or fileset, etc. Any comments? Jason
