My guess is that the property substitution is happening when the string is parsed from the build.xml file. This turns it into a single '\' which is an escape character in a regular expression. You'll need to setup some conditional targets that set the proper string to use, just ${file.separator}

Depends on what you mean by "embedding". In my application I've "embedded" Ant as follows: 1.) Copy org.apache.tools.ant.Main.java into your project. RENAME THIS CLASS. 2.) Make runBuild() have either public or package access, depending on what you need. 3.) Comment-out project.fireBuildStarted

Off the top of my head, this sounds similar to the problem of compiling for Dallas Semiconductors TINI board - you need a bunch of 'custom' classes that conflict in the standard namespace - maybe? Have a look at TiniAnt http://www.ad1440.net/~kelly/sw/tiniant/ Just a wild guess of course... > -
