Hi Brian,
You need to use the <include> task. Your properties file must contain a
<project> definition e.g.
<project name="properties">
<property name="prop1" value="val1" />
<property name="prop2" value="val2" />
</project>
and save as properties.build.
Then in another file build file you can use:
<include buildfile="properties.build" />
Cheers,
Bill

Subject: [Nant-users] NAnt equivalent to Ant's <property file="xyz">
I've been using NAnt for a few weeks and have migrated our
Win32 app build to it. I'm looking for a way to load a set
of properties from an external file, similar to Ant's
<property file="xyz"> method.
NAnt's <property> does not allow files as a source, so I'm
curious what others have done for this type of solution?
Ant seems to be able to read files like this:
# comment
Property1=Value1
Property2=Value2
etc.
It seems that creating a custom task or script would work.
Does anyone have an example they'd care to share?
thanks,
brian
