Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-284:
--------------------------------------------

Many thanks for this contribution. Some questions:

- Is it possible to add a unit test?
- Do you know whether ant is compatible with JDK 1.3? This is still our target 
JDK. If it is, I can directly apply this patch. Otherwise we probably have to 
wait for the next version (I expect configuration 1.5 to be last version that 
is compatible to JDK 1.3; the next version - 1.6 or 2.0, however it will be 
called - will require JDK 1.4).

Thanks again.

> suggestion:
> interpolation with system environment, i.e.
> ${sys:user.name} reads from systemproperties (as of today)
> ${sysenv:TEMP} reads from OS environment
> these can be parsed from a supported set of OS's - windows read from a set in 
> a "cmd /c", unix/linux from an "env" etc. (just once on demand)
