I know this is hard to believe, I didn't believe it myself at first. I don't know what's going on here. Have you tested this? It doesn't expand any of the properties, not just alias.
I've even echo'd the values of the properties before calling the task so I know that they are set. It's been broken since at least version 1.4. It's not that big of a deal because <genkey> is called so rarely during the life of a project. -Joshua -----Original Message----- From: Steve Loughran [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2002 7:22 PM To: Ant Developers List Subject: Re: bug report - <genkey> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joshua Allen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Ant Developers List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2002 14:46 Subject: bug report - <genkey> > The <genkey> task does not expand property values. > <genkey alias="${keystorealias}" keystore="${keystore}" storepass="${keystorepassword}" keypass="${keypassword}" verbose="true"> > > Will substitite ${keystorealias} for the alias instead of whatever the property value is. I think you may have left keystorealias unassigned. conversion from ${propname} to a value in any attribute assingment is done by ant, not the individual tasks, so this is situation is pretty much impossible. It does happen in element bodies, which we fix whenever we notice. -steve -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
