You could maybe create a <macrodef> that wraps your <echo> with all
the variables. --DD

Hello All!!
First time writing to the list. I'm working for a Software Design
company that works primarily in JAVA. I work in the Production
department, and started using ANT a month or two ago to automate our
processes.
So - I am stuck on something
I would like to create a documentation of my processes thru a CSV file.
The way my ANT works, I use a loop to process each file individually,
and the various details about the file [name, path, datemodified, action
performed with the file, etc] are echoed to a file with comma delimiters
to allow for filtering and sorting in Excel.
Here's my problem, I currently echo a full string of variables for each
file in each area I process files in different ways. The problem with
this is that if I want to make a change, I need to change the string of
variables in every location I create this log. I'd like to be able to
have some form of reference to a string that I can call in various
places, but only need to change in one.
Making a property with other properties doesn't work because properties
sets the value with the ${} and doesn't allow for them to be replaced.
I'd appreciate if anyone has any ideas.
I hope that my description is clear. If not, please ask away ...
TIA,
Josh
