[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

Specialized <fileset> class for managing resource files.

### Parameters

Attribute | Type | Description | Required
--- | --- | --- | ---
dynamicprefix | bool | Indicates whether prefixes should be dynamically generated by taking the path of the resource relative to the basedir and appending it to the specified prefix. The default is false. | False
prefix | string | Indicates the prefix to prepend to the actual resource. This is usually the default namspace of the assembly. | False
basedir | directory | The base of the directory of this fileset. The default is the project base directory. | False
casesensitive | bool | Indicates whether include and exclude patterns must be treated in a case-sensitive way. The default is true on Unix; otherwise, false. | False
defaultexcludes | bool | Indicates whether default excludes should be used or not. The default is true. | False
failonempty | bool | When set to true, causes the fileset element to throw a ValidationException when no files match the includes and excludes criteria. The default is false. | False
id | string | The ID used to be referenced later. | False
refid | string | The ID to use as the reference. | False
