thanks for reply, I used xmlproperty, now I am trying to extract url from psf.project.reference
<psf> <project reference="v1.0,http://blahblahblah1,desc1"/> <project reference="v1.1,http://blahblahblah2,desc2"/> <project reference="v1.2,http://blahblahblah3,desc3"/> </psf> <for list="${psf.project.reference}" param="ref"> <sequential> <propertyregex property="url" input="@{ref}" regexp="(http)(.*)" select="\0"/> <echo>${url}</echo> </sequential> </for> The above code doesn't work properly, please advice. Is there a better way to do it?
