<h2>Clone</h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Clone a project reference (presumably for augmentation).</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
    <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
    <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top">cloneref</td>
    <td valign="top">What to clone, given as a
      <a href="../using.html#references">reference</a> to an
        object with a publicly accessible clone() implementation.
    </td>
    <td valign="top" align="center">Yes</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<p>
Assuming the clone operation is successful, the clone invocation supports
any attributes and nested elements supported by the cloned type
(the obvious exception is the &quot;cloneref&quot; attribute).
<b>Please note that modifications to cloned objects may yield
unpredictable results depending on the internals of the cloned class.</b>
</p>
<h3>Examples</h3>
<p>
Given a fileset <i>foo</i>:
<pre>  &lt;clone id="foo.txt" cloneref=&quot;foo&quot;&gt;
    &lt;filename name="**/*.txt" />
  &lt;/clone&gt;
  &lt;clone id="foo.nontxt" cloneref=&quot;foo&quot;&gt;
    &lt;filename name="**/*.txt" negate="true" />
  &lt;/clone&gt;
</pre>
Creates filesets <i>foo.txt</i> and <i>foo.nontxt</i>, which could be
put to such uses as filtering some files and not others when copying.
