XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Elliotte Rusty Harold <elharo AT ibiblio.org>]

Does anyone happen to know how to write a jar task in Ant that would
bundle up everything in src/nu/xom except nu/xom/tests, nu/xom/tools,
nu/xom/samples, and nu/xom/pantry? This is a prerequisite for an
upgraded maven package.

I've been able to get Ant to exclude one directory, but not all of them.

This, for example, does not work:

    <jar destFile="${sources.jar}" basedir="${build.dir}/src"
excludes="**/tests/**, **/tools/**"/>

It excludes tests but not tools. Contrary to all rational expectation
this also excludes tests but not tools:

    <jar destFile="${sources.jar}" basedir="${build.dir}/src"
excludes="**/tools/**, **/tests/**"/>

I have not been able to make any rational sense out of which
directories Ant excludes when. :-(
