http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39554 Summary: Make sysproperty a top level element to set system properties of ant Product: Ant Version: 1.6.5 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'd like to be able to define java system properties in the build.xml file. For example I need to set a proxy (socksProxyHost) for the <scp> task that runs within the virtual machine ant runs in. Until now, the only way to do this is to give the properties to the ant call itself or define it for my ant installation. But I want to define them in the build.xml file itself. A simple way to do this would be to allow the <sysproperty> element as a direct child of the <project> element. Evaluating the element would call System.getProperties.setProperty(key, value) making that system property available for all other tasks withing ant. -- 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]
