Hi,
I am writing a target which merges property values from the property file
into another file which is then used when building my application. The
target should only get executed if the specific property is present in the
property file.
The target which does the merging is dependant on another target, named
merge-check, which should verify that the required property is present in
the property file. Merge-check should set an internal property, named
something like merge-check-ok, if the property is present.
In the target doing the merge, we can then check the property merge-check-ok
using the if clause.
However, I don't know how to check the property file for a specific
property. I've tried using a condition, and using the loadproperties and
filterchain as in the bwlow example:
<target name="config-address-check" depends="config-merge-check"
if="ok-merge-config">
<condition property="ok-address-config">
<loadproperties srcfile="build.properties">
<filterchain>
<linecontains>
<contains value="bind.ip.address"/>
</linecontains>
</filterchain>
</loadproperties>
</condition>
</target>
But the condition task does not support loadproperties.
Can anybody tell me how I can verify if a property exists, and hence let the
script know of this?
Thanks,
Tim
