Hi,
Thanks Erik for pointing out my error. I did a copy/paste from a Korn shell
script and forgot to change $ENV_VAR to ${ENV_VAR}. Everything worked after
I made the changes.
thanks,
vince

I'm not 100% certain of this as you did not define more explicitly what
you mean by "doesn't work", but one of the biggest "mistakes"(?) I see
people make with Ant is using 'value' on <property> when you're refering
to files/directories. 'location' is what you want. I would recommend
(and this doesn't appear to matter in your case, but it is a best
practice) that you switch your property assignments.
I also see you using $BEA_DIR. I think you mean ${BEA_DIR}.
