Did you look at the tstamp task?

           <tstamp>
<format property = "some-property" pattern = "yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm-ss"/>
           </tstamp>

Subject: How to store date time as a long value into a text file.


Hi all,

I have searched the archives, but I am not able to get the answer of my
question. My problem is I want to create a file say "foo" and store current
time as long value in that using Ant.

For example :

long myvar = System.currentTimeMillis();

would produce a long value of current date time, which I want to store in
"foo"

I created the file :

        <target name="create.foo">
             <touch file="foo" />
        </target>

But I am not sure, I to store date time as long value into that file.. Does
some have any idea ?

Regards,
Ravi.
