I don't want to expand the *...
So my question is: how escape * in ANT to avoid the expansion?

The shell was doing the expansion of the '*'.

The <apply> task should work for you (you just need to start Java
yourself,
which is easy thanks to java.home), or you expand the '*' before using a
<fileset> converted to a property using <pathconvert>.

Sounds like <apply> would be the better solution to me. --DD

I wish to run a jar with this target:
   <target ...  >
      <java ... fork =3D "true" >
         <arg line  =3D "-l MainTrace -o 1 -select *" />
      </java>
   </target>

The '*' after 'select' will be expanded and replaced by the files in the
current directory.
Before, I used 'make':

go: $(JAR_TARGET)
	$JAVA) -jar $(JAR_TARGET) -l MainTrace -o 1 -select '*'

Info: <arg value=3D"*" /> give the same result.

Anybody has an idea?
