You can use the <propertyfile> task (it was easier to do it than it
would've been to explain it :)
<target name="setBuildNo">
<propertyfile file="build.properties">
<entry key="buildno" type="int" default="042501" operation="+"
pattern="000000"/>
<entry key="testbuild" value="Build_${buildno}_T"/>
<entry key="prodbuild" value="Build_${buildno}_P"/>
</propertyfile>
<property file="build.properties"/>
<echo message="Test-build number ${testbuild}"/>
<echo message="Production-build number ${prodbuild}"/>
</target>
