Hi Ant users,
I hope to find some help here. Currently I tried to update a Manifest file with
the current revision out of our perforce versioning system. If the manifest
file get's opened for edit and submitted, the file content will change as it
should. Now I would like to use this in my ant-script to automatically get a
new 'build' number for the jar-file.
Here is the part of my buildfile:
<target name="update_manifest">
<property name="p4.globalopts" value="-P xxxxxxxx"/>
<property name="p4.client" value="zzzz"/>
<property name="p4.user" value="yyyyyy"/>
<property name="p4.port" value="host:1667"/>
<property name="p4.change" value=""/>
<p4change description="Change Build Number in Script"/>
<echo message="changeno: ${p4.change}"></echo>
<p4edit
view="//cid_dev/java_src/MANIFEST.MF"
change="${p4.change}"
globalopts="${p4.globalopts}"/>
<echo message="changeno: ${p4.change}"></echo>
<p4submit change="${p4.change}" globalopts="${p4.globalopts}"/>
</target>
This does unfortunatly not work. The p4change-command does not set the
p4.change-property as it should the echo reads as:
[echo] changeno:
And obviously the edit and submit tasks fail as well. If I remove the change
attribute from the edit-task, the file will be opened for edit under the
default change in perforce. But I cannot submit it.
I am using ANT 1.7.0 within Eclipse.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I was using Google but could only find old
messages related to ANT 1.4 / 1.6.
Best regards,
Daniel
