Why don't you use xmltask by oopsconsultancy http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/
If you use xmltask your ant build.xml will look like this: Say your pom.xml looks like this: pom.xml ------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";> <parent> <version>0.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version> </parent> </project> So your build.xml will look like this build.xml --------- <project name="version-pick" default="read-replace"> <taskdef name="xmltask" classname="com.oopsconsultancy.xmltask.ant.XmlTask"/> <target name="read-replace"> <xmltask source="${pom.path}/pom.xml" dest="${pom.path}/pom.xml" failWithoutMatch="true"> <replace path="//:project/:parent/:version/text()" withText="1.2.00-SNAPSHOT"/> </xmltask> </target> </project> I will say if you use xmltask its easy and you can do lot more operations than you can expect. parent -----Original Message----- From: Saberex <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, Jun 15, 2009 8:22 pm Subject: replace version info in maven2 pom with ant i to all, I´ m trying to filter/replace a maven2 pom with=2 0ant. o long not the biggest problem.
