http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36239 Summary: <replaceregex> in <tokenfilter> does not honour flags="s" Product: Ant Version: 1.6.5 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When using <repalceregex>, specifying flags="s" has no effect (that is, you want the regex to span lines). Example: <project basedir="." default="test" name="test"> <target name="test"> <copy overwrite="true" file="src.txt" tofile="dest.txt"> <filterchain> <tokenfilter> <replaceregex pattern="START.*" replace="SNIP" flags="gs"/> </tokenfilter> </filterchain> </copy> </target> </project> == src.txt == line1 foo START this bit should disappear and so should this bit == == To Reproduce: Run the above build.xml, and look at dest.txt. Everything from START to EOF should be replaced with "snip", but it is not. Changing or removing the byline attribute has no effect. Diagnosis: I had a look at TokenFilter.ChainableReaderFilter. The "byline" attribute seems to be what I want, but running this through a debugger proved that ChainableReaderFilter.chain(Reader) is *never* called. Solution: Not to sure, reading the whole TokenFilter/ChainableReader thing was like chasing a rabbit down a hole :P Workaround: I wrote my own FilteredReader to use with <filterreader> -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
