Hi,
I am trying to figure out a way to extract the values from a
line in a file.
To be more precise; there is a file that contains lines containing the
following fields (separated by spaces / tabs):
Name Age Contact_Number
I want to search for a particular name in this file (which I guess can
be done by using the Ant "loadproperties" task) and extract the age
corresponding to that Name from the file. Is there a way to do this?
I was going throught the help for "loadproperties" task and got to know
the following:
" <loadproperties srcFile="file.properties">
<filterchain>
<linecontains
<http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTypes/filterchain.html#linecontains> >
<contains value="import."/>
</linecontains>
</filterchain>
</loadproperties>
Read the lines that contain the string "import." from the file
"file.properties" and load them as Ant properties. "
Can anyone explain how the second value (Age) will be loaded in a
property.
Thanks in advance for your help.
