    - #### targetdir

    - #### mapperElement

          protected Mapper mapperElement

    - #### map

          protected FileNameMapper map

    - #### granularity

          protected int granularity

  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### MappingSelector

          public MappingSelector()

      Creates a new `MappingSelector` instance.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### setTargetdir

          public void setTargetdir(java.io.File targetdir)

      The name of the file or directory which is checked for out-of-date files.
      Parameters:
        `targetdir` - the directory to scan looking for files.

    - #### createMapper

          public Mapper createMapper()
                              throws BuildException

      Defines the FileNameMapper to use (nested mapper element).
      Returns:
        a mapper to be configured
      Throws:
        `BuildException` - if more than one mapper defined

    - #### addConfigured

          public void addConfigured(FileNameMapper fileNameMapper)

      Add a configured FileNameMapper instance.
      Parameters:
        `fileNameMapper` - the FileNameMapper to add
      Throws:
        `BuildException` - if more than one mapper defined
      Since:
        Ant 1.8.0

    - #### verifySettings

          public void verifySettings()

      Checks to make sure all settings are kosher. In this case, it means that the dest attribute has been set and we have a mapper.
      Overrides:
        `verifySettings` in class `BaseSelector`

    - #### isSelected

          public boolean isSelected(java.io.File basedir,
                                    java.lang.String filename,
                                    java.io.File file)

      The heart of the matter. This is where the selector gets to decide on the inclusion of a file in a particular fileset.
      Specified by:
        `isSelected` in interface `FileSelector`
      Specified by:
        `isSelected` in class `BaseSelector`
      Parameters:
        `basedir` - the base directory the scan is being done from
        `filename` - is the name of the file to check
        `file` - is a java.io.File object the selector can use
      Returns:
        whether the file should be selected or not

    - #### selectionTest

          protected abstract boolean selectionTest(java.io.File srcfile,
                                                   java.io.File destfile)

      this test is our selection test that compared the file with the destfile
      Parameters:
        `srcfile` - file to test; may be null
        `destfile` - destination file
      Returns:
        true if source file compares with destination file

    - #### setGranularity

          public void setGranularity(int granularity)

      Sets the number of milliseconds leeway we will give before we consider a file out of date. Defaults to 2000 on MS-DOS derivatives and 1000 on others.
      Parameters:
        `granularity` - the leeway in milliseconds
