Hi folks,
say, is it possible to tell ecompile to ignore all files in certain named folders?

e.g. I want to exclude all "base" subfolders. Ecompile should compile all files in /pkg with the exception of e.g. "/pkg/base" and "/pkg/xxx/base", .... etc.

is that possible?
If yes, that would help me a big deal.

Well i think(THINK) that the only place to do this would be the ecompile.xfg

.xfg? == .cfg?
haven't seen any 'exclude' statement options in the ecompile.cfg though.

Quite a bizarre idea, but:
Try to put a pkg.cfg into each batch directory with the contents of "enabled 0" and then ecompile with the -A option. Since this only compiles sources in main and enabled packages....

sadly can't... the "base" folders are automatically/dynamically created by our cvs- sourcecode-management program, whenever one checks out files for editing.

Yet another bizarre idea

Would ecompile "see" hidden or system folders?
If not, hiding the base directories might be the solution. You could write a batch that changes the base directories to hidden, then ecompile and change back the directories to normal.
