My ant script uses tilde "~" in the path. It seems to work fine with my
colleagues but it failed to work in my unix machine. When I copy files to
~/deploy, instead of creating a directory called deploy in my home
directory, it actually creates "~/deploy" in my current directory instead. I
know I should use "${user.home}", but does anyone have any idea why it
happened?
yes. ~ is interpreted by the shell, and Ant has no shell. You cant use
~/something in Java code or even C/C++ apps.
