You can use 1. <echo> to write something to an ASCII-file and use this in a way you like 2. <jar> and include a manifest which contains the information you need 3. <filter> and <copy> (or replace) to replace tokens in your sources
To manage your build-number you could use <propertyfile> to increment the build-number in a properties-file and <property> to read it in afterwards. You will need to replace your build-number manually before starting with 1.1, or you need to include the version-number in the name of the property.

This goes back to my fuzzy question about how could Ant have some of kind "versioning task" to slap a build number for every build that I post for the Developers and QA. For example, the current release is 1.0. For every build that I post between 1.0 and lets say 1.1, I need to assign a build number to each of these builds. So instead of manually labeling the posted build 1.0.r5, I would like to know if there's a way for Ant to stamp the build that I produced when I post.
