don't know if people consider this worthwhile or not, but i find it very
handy when dealing with projects broken down into multiple buildfiles. the
patch allows nant to attempt to resolve properties not in the
PropertyDictionary from the Environment. So, if you have a property called
"build.dir" but it's not set in your project, but is set in your
environment, the property will be pulling in from the environment.
here's the revised indexer, against /src/NAnt.Core/PropertyDictionary.cs
public virtual string this[string name] {
get {
string value = (string) Dictionary[(object) name];
if(null == value) {
//try to resolve from environment
value = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(name);
if(null!=value)
value =
ExpandProperties(System.Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables(value));
}
return value;
}
set {
if (!_readOnlyProperties.Contains(name)) {
Dictionary[name] = value;
}
}
}
