Hi...

 

            I'm trying to filter the output from an svn update to get
the version number it's up to.  I want to grab just the version number
and output that to a file.  I've been experimenting with <redirector> on
<exec> but I'm running into some odd things (at least from what I can
tell out of the documentation).

 

    <exec executable="svn" outputproperty="upout">

            <arg line="update"/>

            <redirector>

            <outputfilterchain>

                        <linecontains>

                                    <contains value="revision"/>

                        </linecontains>

            </outputfilterchain>

            </redirector>

    </exec>

 

Correctly outputs just the last line which contains the revision number,
but

 

            <linecontainsregexp>

                        <regexp pattern="*revision*"/>

            </linecontainsregexp>

Produces no output.  Seemed odd to me, since the pattern is effectively
the same.

 

            Since ultimately, I also wanted to pick the rev number out
of the string I identified, I experimented with some of the other
filters, like containsstring, containsregexp, replaceregexp.  For
whatever reason, I can't get any regexp to find a match on anything
containing "revision" no matter what I try.  I've also run into some
oddities, like <containsregex> doesn't throw an error when not under
<tokenfilter>; unfortunately it doesn't produce a match either.

 

            Can anyone point me in the right direction to figure out why
regexps aren't hitting for me?

 

            I'm using ant 1.6.5 on windows, by the by.

 

Thanks
