Is there a better way > to do it? i would use the xmltask [1] (recommended for xml related stuff), combined with xpath [2] = <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project> <!-- Import XMLTask --> <taskdef name="xmltask" classname="com.oopsconsultancy.xmltask.ant.XmlTask"/> <target name="depends"> <xmltask source="./example.xml"> <regexp path="//@reference" pattern=".+,(h.+),.+" replace="$1"/> <copy path="//@reference" append="true" property="foobar" propertyseparator="${line.separator}"/> </xmltask> </target> <target name="main" depends="depends"> <echo>$${foobar} = ${line.separator}${foobar}</echo> </target> </project> Buildfile: /home/ant/foo.xml depends: [xmltask] Cannot append values to properties [xmltask] Cannot append values to properties [xmltask] Cannot append values to properties main: [echo] ${foobar} = [echo] http://blahblahblah1 [echo] http://blahblahblah2 [echo] http://blahblahblah3 BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 388 milliseconds the message "Cannot append values to properties" is a bit annoying but you may simply ignore it, i don't know how to get rid of it [1] http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/ [2] http://www.zvon.org/xxl/XPathTutorial/General/examples.html Regards, Gilbert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@ant.apache.org
