<title>Ant-contrib Tasks: TimestampSelector</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>TimestampSelector</h1>
<p>The TimestampSelector task takes either a nested <path> element,
or a path reference, and sets either a named property, or a <code>path</code>
instance to absolute pathnames of the files with either the N latest or earliest
modification dates (based on the <code>age</code> attribute)</p>
<h2>Parameters</h2>
<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<th>Attribute</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th>Required</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">property</td>
<td valign="top">The property to set with the most recently modified file. Mutually
exclusive with the <code>outputsetid</code> attribute.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">Yes, if <code>outputsetid</code> is not specified.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">outputsetid</td>
<td valign="top">The id of a <code>path</code> instance which will contain the
resulting list of files. This id should not already exist. Mutually exclusive
with the <code>property</code> attribute</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">Yes, if <code>property</code> is note specified.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">count</td>
<td valign="top">The number of files to find. If more than 1, than the
files in the output appear in the order indicated by the <code>age</code>
attribute.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">No. Defaults to <code>1<code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">age</td>
<td valign="top">The age of the files to retrieve, either <code>eldest</code>
or <code>youngest</code>. Defaults to <code>youngest</code>.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">No. Defaults to <code>1<code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">pathSep</td>
<td valign="top">The path separator to separate paths with when using the
<code>property</code> attribute in conjunction with the <code>count</code>
attribute</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">No. Defaults to <code>,<code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">pathref</td>
<td valign="top">Id of the path to find the most recently modified file in.</td>
<td align="center" valign="top">No, if a <code>path</code> subelement is
specified.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<h2>Parameters specified as nested elements</h2>
<a name="path"><h3>path</h3></a>
<p><a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/using.html#path">Path</a>
is used to select sets of files or directories in which to find the
most recently modified file</p>
<h2>Example</h2>
<h3>Using a path reference</h3>
<pre>
<code>
<path id="mypath">
<fileset dir="${log.dir}">
<include name="update*.log" />
</fileset>
<path>
<timestampselector property="most.recent.logs"
pathref="mypath" count="3"
pathsep=";" />
<echo message="${most.recent.logs}" />
</code>
</pre>
<h3>Using a nested <code>path</code> element</h3>
<pre>
<code>
<timestampselector property="most.recent.logs"
count="3"
pathsep=";" >
<path>
<fileset dir="${log.dir}">
<include name="update*.log" />
</fileset>
<path>
</timestampselector>
<echo message="${most.recent.logs}" />
</code>
</pre>
<h3>Outputing to a <code>path</code> element</h3>
<pre>
<code>
<timestampselector outputsetref="most.recent.logs"
pathref="mypath" count="3">
<path>
<fileset dir="${log.dir}">
<include name="update*.log" />
</fileset>
<path>
