| <p>FileLists are explicitly named lists of files. Whereas FileSets |
| act as filters, returning only those files that exist in the file |
| system and match specified patterns, FileLists are useful for |
| specifying files that may or may not exist. Multiple files are |
| specified as a list of files, relative to the specified directory, |
| with no support for wildcard expansion (filenames with wildcards will be |
| included in the list unchanged). |
| FileLists can appear inside tasks that support this feature or at the |
| same level as <code><target></code> (i.e., as children of |
| <code><project></code>). |
