## Interface ConfigurableFileTree

- All Superinterfaces:
    AntBuilderAware, Buildable, DirectoryTree, FileCollection, FileTree, Iterable<File>, PatternFilterable

      public interface ConfigurableFileTree
      extends FileTree, DirectoryTree, PatternFilterable, Buildable

  A `FileTree` with a single base directory, which can be configured and modified.

  You can obtain a `ConfigurableFileTree` instance by calling `Project.fileTree(java.util.Map)`.

    - #### from

          ConfigurableFileTree from(Object dir)

      Specifies base directory for this file tree using the given path. The path is evaluated as per `Project.file(Object)`.
      Parameters:
        `dir` - The base directory.
      Returns:
        this

    - #### getDir

          File getDir()

      Returns the base directory of this file tree.
      Specified by:
        `getDir` in interface `DirectoryTree`
      Returns:
        The base directory. Never returns null.

    - #### setDir

          ConfigurableFileTree setDir(Object dir)

      Specifies base directory for this file tree using the given path. The path is evaluated as per `Project.file(Object)`.
      Parameters:
        `dir` - The base directory.
      Returns:
        this

    - #### getBuiltBy

          Set<Object> getBuiltBy()

      Returns the set of tasks which build the files of this collection.
      Returns:
        The set. Returns an empty set when there are no such tasks.

    - #### setBuiltBy

          ConfigurableFileTree setBuiltBy(Iterable<?> tasks)

      Sets the tasks which build the files of this collection.
      Parameters:
        `tasks` - The tasks. These are evaluated as per `Task.dependsOn(Object...)`.
      Returns:
        this

    - #### builtBy

          ConfigurableFileTree builtBy(Object... tasks)

      Registers some tasks which build the files of this collection.
      Parameters:
        `tasks` - The tasks. These are evaluated as per `Task.dependsOn(Object...)`.
      Returns:
        this
