• Files from self.cpp.xxx.bindirs to self.cpp.package.bindirs matching self.patterns.xxx.bin patterns.

• Files from self.cpp.xxx.srcdirs to self.cpp.package.srcdirs matching self.patterns.xxx.src patterns.

• Files from self.cpp.xxx.builddirs to self.cpp.package.builddirs matching self.patterns.xxx.build patterns.
