replace string with pattern?

[chris . chang]

Folks,

I would to replace the a string (with pattern) with another string.  Any
ideas?

e.g.

com.abc.project.ejb.[xyz]VO -> com.abc.project.vo.[xyz]VO

something like this would be good for me (just like dos wildcard) 8)
    <replace dir="src-dir" token="com.abc.project.ejb.*VO"
value="com.abc.project.vo.*VO">
      <include name="**/*.java"/>
    </replace>

where [xyz] and * are anything

I cannot just replace com.abc.project.ejb. with com.abc.project.ejb. cuz
there are also other stings with this prefix (e.g.
com.abc.project.ejb.xyzBean)

Best Regards

Chris
