Hello,
Sometimes when I use the <propertyfile> task, with the increment operation, instead of adding 1 to the value of the property entry, it multiplies it by two... I can execute exactly the same task once, and it adds "1", other times, with no change in any parameter or the environment, it multiplies it by two. I'm only executing the task once each time I run the buildfile, so I don't think it's an issue relating to immutable property values. Here's an example of my task anyway: <propertyfile file="${buildnumber-file-path}"> <entry key="build-number" type="int" operation="+" value="1" default="0"/> </propertyfile> I've also noticed that when the value of the build-number variable exceeds 1000 in a French locale, an non-breakable space character is added to the number, to make it "1 000". Unfortunately, this means that in subsequent builds, the number becomes "1\u00A0000" (or similar), and is thereafter useless. Could be an implementation issue concerning the use of NumberFormat..? By the way, I've still not upgraded to Ant 1.5.x because I've heard that there's a bug when updating zip/jar files... so I can't yet take advantage of the buildnumber task. - Chris -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
