Karthik,

You are still being a bit cryptic and making it hard for me to comprehend what the problem is, but here are some general pieces of advice with Ant related to what I think you are doing:

* There is no need to use conditional logic to have a different set of properties for different operating systems. There is an implicit and declarative way to do this:

         <property file="${os.name}.properties"/>

But whitespace gets in the way, so you could use the ant-contrib <osfamily> (http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/tasks/index.html) which would be cleaner than the value of ${os.name}.

* Using IndexFiles from the demo is awkward, to me. Why not give the sandbox <index> task a try?

* Ant has a <pathconvert> task that might be handy for you.

Please post how you are using <java> (I can only presume), if that is the issue.

creating Index

O/s Specific should be in the Build.xml and
should be trigged somthing by this type



<condition property="isWindows"> <os family="windows" /> </condition>

                                           or

I'm not following what you want very clearly, but there is an <index> task in Lucene's Sandbox.

Please post what you are trying, and I'd be happy to help once I see
the details.

Hi

Guys


Apologies..........


The Task for me is to build the Index folder using Lucene & a simple Build.xml for ANT

The Problem ...... Same 'Build .xml'  should be used for differnet
O/s...
[ Win / Linux ]

The glitch is respective jar files such as Lucene-1.4 .jar & other jar
files are not in same dir for the O/s.
Also the I/p , O/p Indexer path for source/target may also vary.



Please Somebody Help me..... :(



with regards
Karthik




WITH WARM REGARDS HAVE A NICE DAY [ N.S.KARTHIK]
