Hi,
when running the following example under ANT 1.6 (copy from the
documentation):
<echo
message="All these moments will be lost in time, like teardrops in the
${weather}"
file="loadfile1.tmp"
/>
<property name="weather" value="rain" />
<loadfile property="modifiedmessage" srcFile="loadfile1.tmp">
<filterchain>
<filterreader
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.filters.ExpandProperties"/>
</filterchain>
</loadfile>
I have this exception:
java.lang.NullPointerException

It looks that the project is not set when using the classname loading.
It works fine with the built-in filter (convenience method).
It may be a problem for customized filter readers.
Thanks,
Stephane
