Hello teknokrat,
the fact that c:/ is written as c\:/ in a property file belongs to the spec of
properties in Java. The : character is always escaped in property files.
Do you use the property file that you generate using <propertyfile/> also with
a Java program, or is it consumed by something else, such as a shell script ?

Subject: how do i use propertyfile on windows?
When ever I use the propertyfile task to add a filepath on
windows it escapes the colon in front of the drive e.g. c:/
turns to c\:/ which completely messes up the path. How do I
make it stop escaping characters?
thanks
I would suggest using a properties file in the same directory as the
build.xml that contains the path to the other properties file. Some this
like this...
buld.properties
================
some.other.properties=C:\Path\To\Other.properties
build.xml
================
...
<property file="build.properties"/>
<property file="${some.other.properties}"/>
...

It is consumed by another program
