[gribble]

I am copying files from a source directory tree (recursively) into a flat folder destination (copy all fies to root destination)

I have the Include mask set to:

*.exe
*.pdb


And the exclude mask is:

Setup.exe
txnlogsearch*.*
txlog.*
/obj
/External.NET
/Common.NET
AMS.Profile.pdb
WagonCommon.pdb



What i am noticing is that i have a built component called TxLogViewer.exe (and .pdb). These are being excluded from the copy step and i have found it is due to the exclusion TxLog.* (when i remove this line from the exclusion, the files copy OK).

The aim of this step is to copy all c++ built exe and pdb files (including TxLogViewer.exe) but i dont want to copy another .NET component which is called TxLog.exe


It seems that the exclusion TxLog.* is being treated like TxLog*.*


I have tested this on the latest 5.7 version and it is still happening



In my mind, the wildcards should work as they do in DOS.

i.e TxLogViewer should not cause a match on wildcard TxLog.* - only TxLog*.*
