Hello.  I'm trying to use the <property> task with a prefix.  Here is the
code I'm using:

------------------------------------------
   <property file="./webtest.properties" prefix="${env}" />
   <echo message="host: ${host}" />
------------------------------------------

And here is the properties file I'm trying to load:

------------------------------------------
localhost.host=localhost
qa.host=qatest.domain.com

localhost.port=8080
qa.port=80
------------------------------------------

When I use the prefix property option, none of the properties are read and
they are not usable in the Ant script.  What I'm trying to do is pass in a
property on the command line and then use the correct set of properties
based on server.  I can see the localhost getting passed into the Ant script
correctly, but it doesn't work even if I hardcode localhost into prefix="".
 Is this the right way to go about doing this?

Thanks!
Trent
