I'm not fully sure to follow, but have you tried this one?
<copy todir="${source_dir}">
<fileset defaultexcludes="no" dir="${target_dir}">
<exclude name="**/.wlnotdelete_*/**" />
<exclude name="**/_tmp_war/**" />
</fileset>
</copy>
--DD
PS: Somehow I think I'd put the target_dir in todir myself...

I tried that. I have tried just about every combination i can think of
without success which is why I am sure its the '.' thats causing it
a it works fine for the '_tmp' version. I cant add a slash at the
end as i have a number of different .notdelete directories
with different postfixes '.wlnotdelete_<servername>' where
there servername could be one of 6 or seven names. I dont want to hard code
them all specifically.
I also tried to use the following to delete them and that does not work
either:-
<delete>
<fileset defaultexcludes="no" dir="${target_dir}" includes="**.wl**"/>
<fileset defaultexcludes="no" dir="${target_dir}" includes="*.wl**"/>
<fileset defaultexcludes="no" dir="${target_dir}" includes=".wl**"/>
<fileset defaultexcludes="no" dir="${target_dir}" includes="/.wl**"/>
</delete>

How about:
<copy todir="${source_dir}">
<fileset defaultexcludes="no" dir="${target_dir}">
<exclude name="**/.wlnotdelete/**" />
<exclude name="**/_tmp_war/**" />
</fileset>
</copy>
Does it work? I don't see why directories starting with a dot wouldn't be
matched correctly. How do you know it's because of the dot? --DD

I am trying to use a fileset to copy some directories & files to a new
target location as follows:-
<copy todir="${source_dir}">
<fileset defaultexcludes="no" dir="${target_dir}">
<exclude name="**/.wlnotdelete**"/>
<exclude name="**/_tmp_war**"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
This is working as expected and removing all instances of *_tmp_war
directories in the process
but still leaves all the '.wlnotdelete' directories. I know its because of
the '.' character at the start
of the directory name but I cant find any way of making it work. It must be
a regular expression
matching pattern but I cant find an example of how to do it....anyone got
any bright ideas or pointers
to any docs that might tell me.
TIA
Martin
