Is there any task similar to xmlproperty that would support describing the property "type"? For example, I'd like to be able to specify in a properties file a bunch of directories as location properties. Right now, I specify locations as properties in a .properties file, then declare a corresponding location property in my build file.
<property file="build.properties"/> <property name="build.loc" location="${build.dir}"/> Instead, I'd like to be able to have a properties file that looked someting like this: <properties> <property name="build.loc" location="build"/> </properties> This way, in a single properties file I can define my location properties, rather than having to restate them in my build.xml file. (I'd also want to support things like refid="..." to allow the properties file to declare and reuse path definitions). Is anyone aware of a task that provides this type of capability? Is there a way of doing comparable things with existing tools?
