Configuring clover exclude file patterns

Greetings,

I have clover 3.0 setup using ant, with the following file exclusions:

<clover-setup initString="${clover.initstring}" flushpolicy="threaded" flushinterval="30000">
    <methodContext name="tostring" regexp="(.* )?public String toString\(.*\).*" />
    <files>
        <exclude name="**/*Test.java" />
        <exclude name="**/entity/fields/*.java" />
    </files>
</clover-setup>

The *Test files are excluded correctly, as is the toString() calls, the files under the entity/fields package are not. Does the <files> ant type work with two excludes items? Can you have a partial package definition on your exclude name? I used **/..... format as the doc says something cryptic like

An Ant patternset, relative to the top level package (e.g. com/cenqua/clovertest), element which controls which files are included or excluded from Clover instrumentation. Use this when you wish to exclude files based on packages.

From this I read it starts at clovertest in the sample, although i'm not sure how it knows what the top level package is开发者_Python百科? Is that the first package with files?

As an example my java classes that i want to exclude are like

package com.acme.missileinabox.common.entity.fields;

public class ActivityFields {
   ....
}

Any idea what i'm foobaring? I posted the question here with no response.

You may need to specify a <fileset>, possibly containing one or more <patternset>'s, as discussed under the <fileset> topic in <clover-setup>.

Addendum: If you change <files> to <fileset>, you can use the latter's implicit <patternset> unchanged:

<fileset>
    <exclude name="**/*Test.java" />
    <exclude name="**/entity/fields/*.java" />
</fileset>

Alternatively, use <files> and nest an explicit <patternset>:

<files>
    <patternset>
        <exclude name="**/*Test.java" />
        <exclude name="**/entity/fields/*.java" />
    </patternset>
</files>
