Ant _does_ expand macro parameters the way you want, however (this
discrepancy is unintuitive and baffling to me, but that's another
story). So, you could make the part that checks availability a
macrodef, passing in ${hostname} and ${num} as arguments. You will then
be able to reference [EMAIL PROTECTED]@{num}} (assuming args named same as
original properties) within your macro.
This works in ant 1.6.2 anyway.

I believe ant dies not support the parsing of inner variables (property expansion),
so you will have to make a combination with a <expandproperties> task and
loading the resulting property file after that.
There are some ant extensions that make it possible, but they are in
development. http://www.efanomars.net/pf/index.html PFunctions is one I found
last time, it does that what you want, but it's alpha.

Subject: properties handling problem
Hi,
this is Code for deliver files to different systems with a pre-check...
I'll iterate with der foreach-Task.
The Problem is, I don't now how to set the properties.
Properties
available=availability
availabledir=/export/home/heisc01/anttest/
output=output
hostlist=host_1,host_2,host_3
hostname=host
I think like this: server="${$hostname}_${num}}"
but it didn't work..
Could somebody help me..
best regards..
Beni
