I have some problem with ant-reading system properties on windows platform. I would like to define a set of properties available to many ant scripts. 1. If I try to run ant script with many -D parameters, it says, "The input line is too long. The syntax of the command is incorrect." I do not think it is due to Java, because I manage to run Java with the same parameters. 2. When I generate the propety file with the command set > %global.properties% and then run ant with this file, it skips back slashes, so I lose all directory paths. 3. When I create the static property file, ant does not understand the chain property reference, only the first one. CVSROOT=c:/CVSROOT MYMAILLOOP_HOME=${CVSROOT}/MyMailloop CLIENT_HOME=${MYMAILLOOP_HOME}/client I would like to hear the expert opinion on all the 3 items. And finally, what is the practical solution?
