Hi Remo,
Why do you want to remove the slash anyway? Any doesn't mind, and your paths
will be reachable anyway... Sure, it doesn't look nice in the putput, but it
works....
And, if it is a path, maybe you could try using 'pathconvert'.
<pathconvert property="combinedPath">
<path location="${Prop1}${Prop2}" />
</pathconvert>
And then you can use the property 'combinedPath' which has done this
substring-ing for you... It will even convert *NIX paths to Windows and vice
versa (maybe you need some mappings for that if your NOT using relative
paths, check the pathconvert-help on ant.apache.org/manual)
