Hello Marco, this has been done in SVN (yet unreleased) but not for the replace task.
the bug report https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49261 mentioned mainly the copy task.
Do you want to open a bug report ? Regards, Antoine On 10/28/2010 5:51 AM, Marco Sambin - NeoLogica wrote:
Hi. I am using a<replace> ANT task in my build.xml in order to implement a kind of "conditional compilation" in my Netbeans Java project. Replacing works as expected, except for one point: it is able to replace strings also on read-only files (which then become read-write after replace). This is not a desired behavior, in my opinion (at least, not by default), and it causes issues with our source version control system. I think<replace> should FAIL on read-only files by default. You may want to consider adding a "force" attribute, such as for the<copy> task, in order to force replace on read-only files. Any comments on this would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Marco Sambin
