Hello all,

I have the following property file that I want to load in my project:

db.system=3Dsolid

# ------------------- for Solid ----------------
testfw.solid.system=3DSolid

testfw.dbvar.system=3Dtestfw.${db.system}.system
testfw.db.system=3D${testfw.dbvar.system}


In my build.xml file, after loading the properties file, I would like
the result of:

	<echo message=3D"testfw.db.system =3D ${testfw.db.system}"/>

To be:
	testfw.db.system =3D Solid

Instead of:
	Testfw.db.system =3D testfw.solid.system

Is it possible to do this "double" evaluation?

Thanks in advance,
-jim-
