Sorry for dely in replying... I tried tstamp ant task, but it gives me the
date and time in the format I specify in pattern, while I wanted a long
value produced by System.currentTimeMillis() in the created file.
Thanks for your response.

Did you look at the tstamp task?
<tstamp>
<format property = "some-property" pattern =
"yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm-ss"/>
</tstamp>

Just to inform the list, I was not able to wokout this problem using
standard Ant task, I had to write small custom Ant task to solve this
problem -- which in fact I was trying to avoid ;-)

Hi all,
I have searched the archives, but I am not able to get the answer of
my question. My problem is I want to create a file say "foo" and store
current time as long value in that using Ant.
For example :
long myvar = System.currentTimeMillis();
would produce a long value of current date time, which I want to store
in "foo"
I created the file :
<target name="create.foo">
<touch file="foo" />
</target>
But I am not sure, I to store date time as long value into that file..
Does some have any idea ?
Regards,
Ravi.
