Javac exclusion of package in ANT build.xml

Question

I'm trying to compile all my packages except two of them, here is what my javac in build.xml looks like

<javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${output}" debug="${debug}" failonerror="yes" >
    <exclude name="com/abc/uyyy/**"/>
    <exclude name="com/abc/zzz/**"/>
    <include name="com/abc/zzz/Text.java"/>
    <patternset refid="excluded.from.compilation.abc"/>
    <classpath refid="abc.module.classpath"/>
</javac>

But all the files in package are compiled :(.

I've read the documentation (http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/javac.html), but still no success, any help?

NOTE: After the Text.java is compiled, I need to build the WSDL file and then build the excluded packages. I'm using Metro to write and build my WS.

Ok here is what I did,I wrote a new target to compile only the WS file and then generate the classes, it works fine :)

<target name="compile-ws-server">
        <javac srcdir="${src}" destdir="${output}"
        debug="${debug}" failonerror="yes">
            <include name="com/abc/xxx/Text.java"/>
            <exclude name="${src}/abc/xxx/**"/>
            <classpath refid="abc.module.classpath"/>
        </javac>
    </target>
