# Class Date

java.lang.Object
org.apache.tools.ant.types.resources.selectors.Date

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `ResourceSelector`

public class Date extends Object implements ResourceSelector
Date ResourceSelector. Based on the date FileSelector, with the most notable difference being the lack of support for the includedirs attribute. It is recommended that the effect of includeDirs = "false" be achieved for resources by enclosing a "dir" Type ResourceSelector and a Date ResourceSelector in an Or ResourceSelector.

Since:
  Ant 1.7
