the beauty and arguably ugliness of ant (Yet Another Duality Of Life)
is that there are many ways to do the same thing. i simply use ant's
<loadfile> and <replace> tasks.
<loadfile> to load the web fragment file.
<replace> to replace the token i created in my web.xml with the entire
contents of the web fragment.
for example:
<loadfile srcfile="jspwebfrag" property="jsp_mappings"/>
<replace file="web.xml" token="REPLACE_WITH_WEB_FRAGMENT_HERE"
value="${jsp_mappings}"/>
i just had to make sure my token was in the correct place in my web.xml
