This is the target which implemented the other one:

       <antcall target="cleanup">
           <param name="param.build" value="${build}"/>
           <param name="param.cleanup.list" value="**/*"/> 
       </antcall>

I used to use:

   <target name="cleanup" >
       <delete>
           <fileset dir="${param.build}" includes="${param.cleanup.list}" />
       </delete>
   </target>

the param.cleanup.list was **/*

That dropped all my compiled classes but left the root directory for the
classes.

I might think (without having a look at the manual) that the
[includeemptydirs="true"] is giving you a hard time... but of course, I
might be wrong ;-)

Hope this helps...

Regards
Luis

Subject: Deleting only the contents of a directory


Dear Colleagues,

I want to delete the contents of a directory without
the very directory. I tried some variants but wth no
luck like this

<delete failonerror="false" includeemptydirs="true">		
   <fileset dir="${project.bin}">
       <include name="**"/>
       <exclude name="${project.bin.name}"/>
   </fileset>
</delete>

I want to delete all files and dirs in ${project.bin}
without ${project.bin}$. I suppose it is something
easy but I still do not see it. Any hints?

Ivan
