I don't remember the exact source I found the information, but essentially this does not work. The token will not work with a variable :(

But I want to pass the name of the file as an argument from a script. I've red the FAQ but can't get it working :( Here's an example of what I want to do: --windows.bat ant deploy -Dproperty.file=properties.win --linux.bat ant deploy -Dproperty.file=properties.linux --build.xml <echo>properties:${property.file}</echo> displays nothing for me. I even tried to define the property first: <property name="property.file" value="" /> So what I'm doing wrong ?
