Hello, I have tested an SVN snapshot of Ant with the fix in for parsing # in the path. It works using Java 1.4.2 but not Java 1.3.1. My understanding is that 1.3 is intended to be supported for Ant 1.7 based on this page http://wiki.apache.org/ant/Ant17/Planning. Is it possible to test this functionality using 1.3?
