extracted from a property file. The name of this file is specified using the
<code><replace></code> attribute <i>propertyFile</i>.

+<p>In file <code>configure.sh</code>, replace all instances of
"@token1@" with "defaultvalue", all instances of
"@token2@" with "value2", and all instances of
"@token3@" with the value of the property "property.key",
as it appears in property file <code>src/name.properties</code>.</p>
+<p><b>Note:</b> It is possible to use either the
<i>token</i>/<code><replacetoken></code> and
<i>value</i>/<code><replacevalue></code> attributes/elements, the nested
replacefilter elements, or both in the same operation.
