http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39688 Summary: ReplaceTokens should allow properties files Product: Ant Version: 1.7Alpha (nightly) Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Core AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm localizing a java project currently and I'm using ant's token replacement feature to do substitutions on strings in javascript (.js) files. Unlike java classes, javascript files cannot import files and cannot use property bundles. I've settled on using ReplaceTokens as my filterreader, but the problem I'm having is that I have a large number of filter tokens that need replacement. They are already in a .properties file, so adding them into my build.xml would be duplicating work. I could also load the properties file and do the replacement with them, but I am afraid that they might collide with an ant build property that is already loaded. What I would like to do is instead of : <filterchain> <filterreader classname="org.apache.tools.ant.filters.ReplaceTokens"> <param type="token" name="DATE" value="${TODAY}"/> </filterreader> </filterchain> I would like to do : <filterchain> <filterreader classname="org.apache.tools.ant.filters.ReplaceTokens"> <param type="propertiesfile" value="presentation_en.properties"/> </filterreader> </filterchain> which would do token replacements on every token found in presentation_en.properties. This seemed an easy enough change to make, and I'm supplying a patch based on current SVN. -- 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]
