The problem seems to trivial to write my own task.
Right. This is best handled using a <script>. It's sometimes tricky to setup, because requires BSF and a Script Language, but once it's setup, then it's a simple matter. The manual for <script> should have all the info, along with the Library Dependencies page. I was using Rhino/JavaScript myself (and a bit of BeanShell toward the end). Once you're up and running, set the property using project.setNewProperty(name, value). The project var is bound automically to the Ant Project instance. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
