What about this? Implement your own extension of java.io.FilterReader that counts the characters available from the Reader passed to its constructor, and buffers the decimal-formatted String representing the character count to be returned from its read() method. Then use a filterchain something like:
<filterchain> <containsregex pattern="mypattern" replace="x" flags="gs" /> <filterreader classname="my.package.CharacterCountingReader" /> </filterchain> This may work; my apologies if someone else can come up with a simpler way that doesn't involve scripting. ;) -Matt --- Zsolt Koppany <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > how can I count the occurrences of a regular > expression in a file with > an ant task? > > Zsolt > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
