It might be simpler, and probably less problematic, to create a new ant task and use it instead of the javascript. I've had nothing but problems with using javascript, the least of which is getting all the dependencies correctly installed.
Try this:
********* MyProperty.java ************
package <your package path>;
import org.apache.tools.ant.Task;
import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException;
public class MyProperty extends Task {
private String data = null;
public String getValue() {
return this.data;
}
public String getName() {
return this.name;
}
public void setValue(String value) {
this.data = value;
}
public void setName(String newname) {
this.name = newname;
}
public void execute() throws BuildException {
try {
java.io.File file = new java.io.File(getValue());
}
catch (java.io.IOException exc) {
throw new BuildException(exc);
}
getProject().setNewProperty(getName(), file.getName());
}
}
And in your ant script, use the following:
<taskdef name="myProperty" classname="<your package
path>/MyProperty"/>
<myproperty name="try_it" value="${basedir}"/>
That should do it! Just replace "<your package path>" with the package
path that you use, and everything's set...
