Okay let me explain a bit more.
I have to read a path from an XML. The XML is constructed by somebody
else and he/she knows the path relative to a root dir only.
So the path in the XML can be ${myapp1.dir}/common/jsp.
The build script that reads this XML can resolve this myapp1.dir dir.
So is it possible to use a variable in the XML and resolve the entire
path after getting the path from the XML.
Any pointers would be helpful.

Hi
I am trying to read a path from an XML file.
For e.g here is an XML
<a>
<b src="${myapp1.dir}/common/jsp" target="${myapp2.dir}/common/jsp"/ >
<b src="${myapp3.dir}/common/jsp" target="${myapp4.dir}/common/jsp"/ >
</a>
And the section of the ant build file looks like this
<loadproperties srcFile="c:/myappdir/conf/sbm.conf"/>
<xmltask source="myXMLFile.xml"> <call
path="a/b" target="package-Resources" inheritAll="true"
inheritRefs="true">
<param name="src" path="@src"/>
</call>
</xmltask>
The values of the variables myapp1.dir, myapp2.dir, myapp3.dir,
myapp4.dir are available in the sbm.conf file and are loaded
correctly. When I read the src from the xml file, the full patch for
${src}doesn't get resolved. The ${src} remains as
${myapp1.dir}/common/jsp. How to resolve this a correct path?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Anand
