Subject: containsregex and concat
I've been trying to use a regular expression and the concat task to pull
summary tables (<table class="summary">...</table>) out of a set of test
reports. The reports are all HTML files sitting in ${report.path}. The
task works fine up until I start trying to select output from it with
<containsregex>. Is there something wrong with my regular expression? Is
there an easier way to do this? Any help would be appreciated.
The code is:
====================
<target name="summary"> <!-- make a report summary -->
<property name="summary.start" value="<table
class="summary">" />
<property name="summary.body" value=".*?" /> <!-- enable "s" for
newline matches -->
<property name="summary.end" value="</table>" />
<property name="summary.regex"
value="${summary.start}${summary.body}${summary.end}" />
<echo>${summary.regex}</echo>
<concat>
<header>HEADER</header>
<fileset dir="${report.path}"
includes="*.html"
excludes="${summary.file}" />
<filterchain>
<tokenfilter>
<filetokenizer />
<containsregex flags="is"
pattern="${summary.regex}" />
</tokenfilter>
</filterchain>
<footer>FOOTER</footer>
</concat>
</target>
====================
The regular expression echoes as:
====================
<table class="summary">.*?</table>
====================
I've done some testing of the expression at
http://www.fileformat.info/tool/regex.htm, and it seems to work there.
