[Nant-users] RE: using the < operator causes an error.

Thanks Leo!  using < works for me.
 
  
 
I believe that because the NAnt config file is XML, you need to escape the XML 
character
"<", so:

<if test="${"b" &lt; "a"}">
   <echo message="wrong"/>
</if>

Subject: [Nant-users] using the < operator causes an error.


Hi, I am new to Nant.  When I try to use the < operator to compare 2 strings or 
numbers, it
gives me an error.  The > operator works fine. I am using RC3 on winXP.
  
Example:
<if test="${"b" < "a"}">
   <echo message="wrong"/>
</if>
  
Error Message:
Error loading buildfile. "<", hexadecimal value 0x3c, is an invalid attribute 
character.
  
It runs fine when I do this:
<if test="${"b" > "a"}">
   <echo message="right"/>
</if>
  
Thanks in advance!
