Heres an example put it at the top of your script.. <project name="myproject" default="compile" basedir="."> <property environment="env" />
After putting this line in your scripts you can access environmental vars like so.. <target name="init"> <!-- Create the time stamp --> <tstamp /> <echo message="OS: ${os.name}"/> <echo message="${ant.version}"/> <!-- Create the build directory structure used by compile --> <mkdir dir="${build}" /> <mkdir dir="${dist}" /> <!-- Display java home --> <echo message="Java home: ${env.JAVA_HOME}" /> </target> -----Original Message----- From: Pravin Pillai [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 7:18 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: Environment Variable Guys: Can i access an environment variable using ant??? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
