Let's see... This might do the job:
<project>
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml"/>
<echo file="unsorted.properties">a.name=a
d.name=d
c.name=c
b.name=b</echo>
<loadfile srcfile="unsorted.properties"
property="unsorted"/>
<sortlist property="sorted" value="${unsorted}"
delimiter="${line.separator}"/>
<echo file="sorted.properties">${sorted}</echo>
</project>
I have posted similar example in [1]. The thread was
started by a developer that wanted to write and
contribute a filter that does the sorting.
I haven't mastered FilterReaders at that time, but now
I think a sorting FilterReader is the pure Ant way of
doing it.
