How to rename file while copying it to directory in ant?

<copy file="..." todir="..." overwrite="true">
Solution

  • Use tofile option instead of todir

    Added

    Or a more complex example from Ant Copy Task documentation:

    Copy a set of files to a directory, appending .bak to the file name on the fly

      <copy todir="../backup/dir">
    <fileset dir="src_dir"/>
    <globmapper from="*" to="*.bak"/>
 </copy>
