I have a ant task in which I have a property like filelisting whose contents are like a,b,c,d
Now i need to create a txt file like
1a
2b
3c
from the property filelisting
How can be this done with a ant task any ideas?
To make a note here a,b,c,d is obtained from a fileset using pathconvert task of ant and a b c d are file names.
Can there be a way to directly use the fileset to generate above mentioned txt file using ant
I have heard of ant-contrib but not sure if it is the only way to do this.
Thanks in advance

Not directly. You need to write a loop. Ant contrib lets you loop. Or you could write a Java task to do it.
