I am using ant in my project as follows. I have templates of all environment files in our application. These templates have properties with placeholders in them like -> db_serv...@db_server@ For each environment we have a properties file. Like for dev we have dev.properties. This contains the actual value of the property like -> DB_SERVER=LNDB241 We call ant like this -> ant create -Denv=dev The ant build file has this create task which uses the property values from the properties file to fill in the templates.
Now the question is , there are several properties that I reuse in the properties file. Like the directory name . Is there any way I can reuse the properties in the properties file like ( I am doing ant build in windows boxes ) -> In dev.properties --> USER_NAME=batuser DB_USERNAME=$USER_NAME} UNIX_USERNAME=$USER_NAME} -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Reusing-property-values-in-a-properties-file-tp29129304p29129304.html Sent from the Ant - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
