Shouldn't you have an environment variable named TOMCAT_HOME anyway? =
(or is
it CATALINA_HOME?)
I thought Tomcat wanted that to run properly.

If you have an env variable you could just do:
    <!-- Get the environment variables -->
    <property name=3D"env" environment=3D"env" value=3D"env"/>

    <property name=3D"webapp.dir" =
value=3D"${env.TOMCAT_HOME}/webapps/myapp" />

Alternatively, specify webapp.dir in a build.properties file that =
defines it
properly for each environment.  I'm not sure you want to check for an =
OS
version for something as simple as a path change.

Subject: ant variables on win & unix


Hi.

I want to ant to automatically detect which platform I'm running it on=20
(win/linux) and therefore to use a different variable for the deploy=20
target, i.e. in win I'd need to take into account drive names

win: e:/java/deploy/tomcat/webapps/myapp
linux /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myapp

Looked at system properties, but cannot figure it out, any help would =
be=20
greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Pete.
