I was having the same issues when I was developing custom tasks and what helped me was to go to the source of built in ant tasks and look at the code. If you don't have it already downlaod a source distro and spend an hour or so looking at the built in tasks.

That should do the trick

Usually tasks set the property themselves via

If you´re result is in a file, you can load that via <loadfile>

And you can hook another property helper ... (somewhere in the proposal section should be an example).

Perfect! Thanks Jan, that's what I was expecting... however if it would be possible to direct me to some reference material (if it exists) that I can use for assisting this sort of work it would be greatly appreciated. Both by myself and I'm sure the others in the group whom I'm harassing by posting lame questions (sorry). I don't see such information in the base tutorial information in the online docs for ant.
