ANT filesets

    Hi

    I have a directory containing about 7 subdirectories. One of these directories contains three files and the others all contain no files. I use ant to create a fileset that includes all these subdirectories, and then I use the ant tar task to tar them all up and gzip them for deployment. The problem I'm having is that the empty directories arent being included in the tar file. I have tried to put in <fileset dir="${directory_name}" includeemptydirs="false"> but that results in a build error, so my guess is that ant doesnt like that extra attribute. Is there any other way I can include empty directories. I have searched google with little luck. Thanks for your help.

    Hi Pontovic,

    Try the following

    <fileset dir="${project.root}">
    <include name="*"/>
    </fileset>
