AW: First char Uppercase

[Jan . Materne]

I did a little try ... and it works (for me):

<project name="myProject" basedir="." default="foo">
    <property name="myprop" value="foo" />
    <target name="foo">
        <!-- Using Javascript functions to convert the string -->
        <script language="javascript"> <![CDATA[

            // getting the value
            lowercaseValue = myProject.getProperty("myprop");

            // the first character
            ch = lowercaseValue.substring(0,1);

            // the rest of the value
            rest = lowercaseValue.substring(1);

            // convert first character to uppercase
            up = ch.toUpperCase();

            // concatenate the uppercase with the rest
            uppercaseValue = up + rest;

            // store the result in a new property
            myProject.setProperty("Myprop",uppercaseValue);

        ]]> </script>

        <!-- Display the values -->
        <echo>myprop=${myprop}</echo>
        <echo>Myprop=${Myprop}</echo>

    </target>
</project>
