Never did this, but I would try sth like:
<property name="setuser.home" value="{user.home}"
<replace file="server.xml" token="APPBASE"
value="$${setuser.home}/public_html"/>

Betreff: how to make replace task not expand Java properties like ${user.home}
Hi. I'm writing an ant task to replace
APPBASE
with
${user.home}/public_html
The command
<replace file="server.xml" token="APPBASE" value="${user.home}/public_html"/>
does replaces APPBASE, but it expands ${user.home}. I don't want it to expand
this variable as I will be copying server.xml to another location, and the
expanded value of the Java property is different.
(BTW, I'm creating several different server.xml, and each one has a totally
different value for APPBASE.)
So I tried
<replace file="server.xml" token="APPBASE" value="\$\{user.home\}/public_html"/>
but the output is has the back slashes in it.
Thanks.
