/* Hi all! I have a problem echoing a set of properties to a specified file. I have a number of properties which have a common prefix, but the exact number is undefined, so these properties are selectable by a propertyset by I do not know the exakt number. [ ... ] <propertyset id="midlet_properties"> <propertyref prefix="MIDlet_"/> </propertyset> But how do I echo this propertyset to the specified file? I tried using <echoproperties> (I know this might not be the intention of echoproperties). That gives me some additional lines at the top of the file that I do not want. I also tried using pathconvert but that really needs a path, not a propertyset. */ Just use = <echo file="file/to/dump/to"props.ext">${toString:midlet.properties}</echo> /* Do I have to use foreach from ant-contrib? Are there any other (reasonable) way to do this? Any suggestions are more than welcome right now. */ use antcontrib <for> to get it line separated, something like= <for list="${toString:midlet.properties} param="prop"> <sequential> <echo file="file/to/dump/to/props.ext>@{prop}${line.separator}</echo> </sequential> </for> Regards, Gilbert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
