Hi,
still no solution ?
Should i fill a bug report about that behaviour
of <propertyfile file="... " />
resulting in a deformed path, f.e.
Y:/bla/corba.jar >>> Y\:/bla/corba.jar
?!
see example below
same result with ant 1.7.0 beta2

Hi,
strange =
<project name="bla" default="main" basedir=".">
<!-- Import AntContrib -->
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml" />
<target name="depends">
<timestampselector
outputsetid="mypath"
count="1"
age="eldest" >
<path>
<fileset dir="Y:/bla">
<include name="*.jar" />
</fileset>
</path>
</timestampselector>
<pathconvert refid="mypath" property="myfixedpath"
targetos="unix"/>
<echo>myfixedpath === ${myfixedpath}</echo>
<echo
file="Y:/bla/foobar1.properties">filepath=${myfixedpath}</echo>
<echo
file="Y:/bla/foobar2.properties">filepath=${myfixedpath}</echo>
</target>
<target name="main" depends="depends">
<propertyfile file="Y:/bla/foobar1.properties" />
<echo>Targetfile === ${filepath}</echo>
</target>
</project>
foobar1.properties, the file which is loaded in the main target looks
like =
#Wed Sep 27 07:53:37 CEST 2006
filepath=Y\:/bla/corba.jar
foobar2.properties looks like =
filepath=Y:/bla/corba.jar
so it seems like the timestamp gets added when loading the propertyfile
with <propertyfile file="..."> but what is really fishy is that the path
goes bad
from : Y:/bla/corba.jar to: Y\:/bla/corba.jar
1. Timestamps go in when the file is created, using <propertyfile>,
which delegates to Properties.store()
2. It is correct to escape the : with a \ , as this is what
Properties.store() does.

What's responsible for that ?
Sun
and
how to make the example above working ?
I dont wee why escaping the \: should matter, as when the properties get
loaded in the escape should be removed and you get what you originally
asked for.
