Hi!

Sounds great, but how kann I pass a whole patternset via such a <param> 
to generic-compile?
It supports no refid attribute.

<patternset id="ps" >
     <include name="foo/aaa/*"/>
     <include name="foo/bbb/*"/>
     <include name="foo2/*"/>
</patternset>

<target name="foo">
     <antcall target="generic-compile">
         <param name="generic.compile" refid="ps"/> <!-- doesn't work -->
     </antcall>
</target>

Thanks in advance,

Steffen
