Summary: properties by default readonly ignoring the readonly option
Initial Comment:
I tried to implement a foreach loop for which I need some kind of counter. I
tried to use a property which I "increase" by adding a '+'. But I get a warning
"[property] Read-only property "test_counter" cannot be overwritten.".
Regarding the documentation the readonly option should be set to "false" by
default and I still get the error when setting it explicitly (also the
overwrite option has no effect). I'm using the 0.8.5 release and tried it whith
the latest nightly build. This is the test script I wrote followed by the
output as comment:
<!-- start of script -->
<project name="list_test2">
<property name="test_list" value="a;b;c"/>
<target name="test">
<property name="test_counter" value=""/>
<foreach item="String" in="${test_list}" delim=";"
property="sub">
<property name="test_counter" value="${test_counter}+"/>
<echo message="${sub}${test_counter}"/>
</foreach>
</target>
</project>
<!--
[property] Read-only property "test_list" cannot be overwritten.
test:
[property] Read-only property "test_counter" cannot be overwritten.
[property] Read-only property "test_counter" cannot be overwritten.
[echo] a
[property] Read-only property "test_counter" cannot be overwritten.
[echo] b
[property] Read-only property "test_counter" cannot be overwritten.
[echo] c
expected output:
test:
[echo] a+
[echo] b++
[echo] c+++
-->
<!-- end of script -->
The most weird about this is that it is not completely reproduceable. There are
always errors that readonly properties can not be overwritten. But sometimes it
works for some properties.
