The source-code you pasted is unreadable as-is. 2. Again, I'm looking for an all-ant solution. If ant isn't powerful enough to do what I want, then that's a reasonable answer. 3. Your solution still doesn't solve my problem. a) The string "REPLACEME" shouldn't be hard-coded; the string to replace should be specified in the ant build.xml file. (I would have thought using a string like "REPLACEME" would have obviously appeared pedagogical.) b) It doesn't limit the directory names matched to a specific glob pattern. c) It doesn't wrap each directory name with . (The transformation should also be specified in the build.xml and not hard- coded.) The solution, if one exists, would use , , , and somehow getting the contents of a directory into a string, say a property. Once in a string, a regex replacement can be done on it. - Paul --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscribe@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-help@ant.apache.org
