        org.apache.tools.ant.types.selectors.NotSelector

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, ResourceSelector, FileSelector, SelectorContainer
```
public class NotSelector
extends NoneSelector
```
This selector has one other selectors whose meaning it inverts. It actually relies on NoneSelector for its implementation of the isSelected() method, but it adds a check to ensure there is only one other selector contained within.

Since:

1.5
