Subject: Convert Value to lower case
/*
I want to convert the value of a property into lower cases.
How can I do this with Ant 1.6.2?
*/
i would go via <script> task and i.e JRuby =
<project name="bla" default="main" basedir=".">
<property name="testprop" value="DEMO"/>
<target name="depends">
<script language="ruby">
<![CDATA[
$project.setProperty "testprop" , $testprop.downcase
]]>
</script>
</target>
<target name="main" depends="depends">
<echo>
$${testprop} == ${testprop}
</echo>
</target>
</project>
gives you =
[echo] ${testprop} == demo
But beware, this does not follow the standard Ant convention of
property immutability
There are also possibillities with addon tasks
like antelope <stringutils> or antcontrib (see property tasks)
if you don't like using a scripting language like jruby,groovy,
javascript, beanshell, jython ....
http://antelope.tigris.org/
http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/
that's non standard Ant too;
this tasks does not follow the standard Ant convention of property
immutability either;
Regards, Gilbert
